“And you Mr. Ground-of-Wheat, Mr. Text, Mr. Is-Was,
can you calculate the ratio between wire and window . . .”
Michael Palmer

“His memory is perfectly clear

and serves no good, no purpose
at all. He has seen things before

(the fly in the bottle,
the indeterminate will).

Santa Muerte, Saint Death,
we pray to you to swallow our breath.”
Michael Palmer, Thread

“Passejo

Señor Muerte and I
go out ghostwalking together

How have we not met before
asks the one of the other”
Michael Palmer, Thread
