IX.


Escapsim, (the delicate: flower). growing from leaves, between torn the pages. Displacement. equal cause for alarm. Can we increase, the sense of urgency? Before my self- inflicted surgery? Or, perform, a back alley lobotomy. They don't need the colors, to decorate, shades of grey. Paint peeling sky lines. Under these layers, we still use wallpaper.
