Not my practice, nor poetry. A poetic synthesis of the practice.
I can't be seeing what it is that I am doing
until I have done it. And to have done it
I must have lived. Lived is past,
therefore I must have died too.
I know exactly what I am doing.
I just doubt what it is*.
And if I knew, I should stop doing it,
as I would know too much.
To see what I am doing I can only look back.
I am not dead, and I don't
want to see it.

THOUGHT
The body is disorganised. Instinct is quickly distrusted.
Our ground is brittle, arms bridle.
In the openings, the beginnings that hide in this rat’s nest,
prospect of scrutiny arise.
Unframed, misshapen, cóntformal. Dance has unbuckled itself, lush.*
Each action, an imperfection.

MOVEMENT
Out of place, restless.
A short breath catches me quietly.
It gets nowhere
Before I know.
A place just about not,
or just about too much.
It died, in the moment of conception.
It ceased pretending.
I almost killed it the moment I noticed it.
Will it kill me back?
By the urgency of not belonging
Of not owing
Not being owned
With option-volition I talked o that breath.*
It gave me a shiver in response.

THOUGHT
Armed with patience
Rebel to definition
Rebel to stereotyped roles
Rebel to identities which are culturally constructed and naturalized
Rebel to common sense
Rebel to what is considered a given.
Rebel to what is defined as normal
Rebel to any definition of normal
Rebel to homologation
Rebel to any desire and need to control
Rebel to any will to have power.
Rebel to codes
Rebel to any single-thought, and its single-thought alternatives
Rebel to all thought systems that are closed, judging, rigid and excluding.
Friction will generate heath to lights the sparks.*
