Excerpts

Climacteric Your story is twice-folded. Medicine induced a saving menopause, once you were cut and hurt to clear away the discord which produced itself inside you, sickest spontaneity. Tides are reversed, and knowledge overpowers you, full yet preliminary, in process. You were aged, and are returning, and will in nature age again, pressured to beauty. At present, have your meanwhile your doubled year recovering a subtler south. Beauty. 'she earned that face.' They say that, when a star turns thirty. Drying-out bequeaths her cheekbones; steel weights have fanned her swanning, aspirational neck. But you you have not earnedthat face. No, you deserve serenity, the drizzled stresses wisdom scans through youth. Look, how your heightened skeleton pulls flesh into transparencies, wearing ahead of time and gravity! You work like that, drawing old lines of music from among the ins and outs of scribe and image, when you edit vellum furred with light. Motets will run like mirror for you, back and forth.
