6My body is attached to your body by a thin spittle of thought. \
7When you turn away from me, my thought is broken \
8and forms anew with something else. Ideas are drool. \
9Beauty has been slobbered over far too long. God \
10is a tidal wave of bodily fluid. Even the flea has some \
11vestigial wetness. We live in a world fleshy and dark, \
12and moist as a nostril. Is conciousness only a watery-eyed \
13romantic, crying softly into his shirt-sleeve? Is not reason \
14a square-jawed businessman with a briefcase full of memory? \
15I want to kiss the world to make it mine. I want to become \
16a Judas to reality, betray it with the wetness of emotion.
