Two Poems by Mark Young



at least six toxic gases

The Galaxy came to Toyota
Stadium on Saturday after-
noon. This was their chance,
as we embarked on a new
century, to give a gift of great
value to future generations.
Turned out our browser
didn't recognize any of the
video formats currently avail-
able & the opportunity was lost.
Spectators under the control
of the Post & Telegraph depart-
ment were forced to pay a fee.







A line from Clara B. Jones

Death begins prior to death. Swimmers
perform synchronized routines that
mimic those playful crayon lines little
brother uses. It interrupts itself inter-

minably. The ecological correlates of
these patterns are marked in black ink,
sourced from lampblack, a substance
made in turn by burning tung oil or

pine resin, & produced for decorating
screens that were salvaged & remounted
as hanging scrolls because their usage dam-
aged them. Those very books themselves

record their own deaths, but also note
their reformation as a kind of resurrection.
Evoke the phoenix, hoping that, like the
terracotta warriors, they will return to life.

Three Poems by Mark Young


the drummer & her colleagues

Children with slit throats have, histori-
cally, always been accused of witchcraft
by social scientists & anthropologists
hoping to suppress hyperchaos. A meta-
analysis of these trials reveals that there's
a range of different habitat types, & many
deposition or sputtering processes are,
however, the result of hair choice &/or

the negative sense of shaking off the in-
trinsic, epistemological value of missed
opportunity. Research papers on religion in
Hollywood movies help to create a working
functionality. Documenting offbeat music
may be the only time you try green tea.







is known as the terminal

Keep the windows open. The reverse
mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]:
for user 'root'@'localhost' will be returning
to Shortwave in the very near future. Many
phone users may rot while others clean up
& regenerate the Italian word sonetto. Images
have to change. The backbone of a mobility
transition is inequality, an altered sensitivity

that doesn't get into emocore. Like the
legendary camel, each mechanism can be
adjusted to turn the Yin-Yang adapter on
or off. Other accords penned include infinite
lattice, current case law, the Rite of Spring.
When are y'all coming back to North Carolina?







In the process of obtaining information

The reunification of Cyprus might
pose a major health problem in
Europe. The empirical evidence
shows a shift to nightmares: & that
means when one licks the envelope
& tries to smear the glue, or makes
thumbnails out of the messages to
be found there, spots from the mark-

et leaders in furniture will be visible
on your glasses. These are the com-
ponents of a barebones system of
collective civil disobedience, a kind
of self-abuse, one of the precursors to
the English big beat/breaks sound.
