Marianne Moore’s Nesting Doll

Sho Sugita

•••••••

Sunrise sleep inertia
isolates the surroundings

Perpetual movement
for this concurrence

This, a probable voice
constrained by verse-line

An assault to codify
psychological selfhoods

The gallery adds value,
curio or aesthetic

Fetishized quisquilia
falls short of expectations

Ambiguities only
a reality of signs

•••••

A dismantling
lyric partnership

Word, then right margin
pressured stopple

Another gray zone
gradient display

A reproduction
in the age of bots

Some really like it
when things fall apart

•••
