HURACAN’S HARP 121




without knowledge to obtain the effects of knowledge
...............carpenter bee
...............cervical ganglia

heaped up wave hanging in the air for centuries
...............key conservation
...............(not a hair lost)

effected inside glial cells not volumes what is
...............storied
...............in volumes or in acid-free bits is

on (the) line constantly conversing with the blowing sheet
...............impeding
...............the bee
