INTO THE FIELD, hosted by Stephen McLaughlin

[Grayscale breath on a fluid...]

Grayscale breath on a fluid

field, with lo-fi

                 rainpatter—petrol blue—,

                                a 60-watt sun uns

-crewed from the

woebegone sky: rip-

                              ­rap & coal slurries,

       dragline & loess, what phosphor

-us is a semaphore

for, silklike

                       in its acoustic shadows

                             louver away, or stay

when I move:

figures astray from the mercury

                        dark—shatterproofless,

                                   shutterproofless,

image noise

stressing each contour to

                                                    strass—

                         as if the margins were

swarming with

centers, or cinders

                                           —"Ecchoes

                                           to the Eye" —

or Cinderella's slipper

blown of poly­-

                                      vinyl butyral

                             & laminated glass
