There is a
thing called “bone”
in the Unified
Classification
System. Unlike a-
biogenic materials
it is more significant,
meaning “reactionary.”
Geology, like order, is
irresolute in its potential
to go away. But I won’t
mistake the severity
of composition: how long
it takes to become uniform,
and why one must. In the end
it can all be summated,
meaning “unimportant.”
Meaning “unequivocal”
in relation to manmade
structures like syntax.
Here are fragments
of severe creatures.
I mean those with
paleolithic intentions.
See also: pre-existing
rock. Coming “before
Christ,” and therefore full
of substance. This
we do not have a say
in. See also: Earth’s
futurity, but it’s useless
to consider this motion.
In the year 1000, for
instance—the millennium
—many anticipated
catastrophe. The birthday
was, it seemed, terribly
significant. People reacted
to the upcoming New
Year with a kind of
unconditional terror,
and, following its smooth
passage—relief.
