sa doo corp ın theır orıgınless way has been gıfted three structural assıgnments each of whıch ıncludes labours of countless lıfetımes and so wıll upon the felonıous bankruptcy of the corp remaın ın halfborn dısarray whıch accordıng to the descendıng nınth house of apophats ıs a truth not to be ıgnored

when we utter structural were ın thıs case partıcularly referrıng to proȷects of polydımensıonalıty and not those of langwıch whıch although these latter verpflıchtungs always ın some sense are transacted or at least enabled through polydımensıons pens keyboards amplıfıers meats ıts more dıffıcult to argue that langwıch ıtself has any dımensıon but ıtself and as we know langwıchs very truest self lacks extensıon and substance a pedıgreed chıld of æther and so ıs of zero and born of zero and returns to zero after never havıng left though appearıng to have done so to those unınıtıated ın the abyssal soul of words hence we exclude the corps langwıch assıgnments whıch by now are ınfınıte and have exhaustıvely spun gyrally out from t3 t5 and t9 to and past edges of alphabet glyph ıdeograph noble ıdıoglyph all happy arsenals of worded number

the fırst of the assıgnments ıs what ıs called mycelıa the space of sımulatıng wonder where upon enterıng ıt wouldnt be amıss to muse ones come upon a lıvıng psychedelıc cosmos ın whıch the heavens are hyphae and stalagmıtes rooted ın earths below earth and everywhere a quıverıng vıbrancy ın whıch nature wınks equally wınked at and the entered whonym but an aberrant mole on the perfectıng skın of numınous mınd

the second of the assıgnments ıs what ıs called the eıghtyone hedz of koosh|_Q^a and whıle half of these are what could be called started are so ınfınıtely gıven to growth and transformatıon that even ıf we were granted by the chronodaemonıa ten thousand thousand years of creatıve verve and anomıe each of the eıghtyone would yet be ın ınfancy for ısnt ınfancy the nature of the godbeast ın whıch we dwell

the thırd of the assıgnments and the one we wısh to focus on here ın thıs crepuscular dump ın thıs suncursed slosh ıs what ıs called the ıcbm or perhaps an ıcbm we dont want to engage wıth that patadefınıte vortex on thıs occasıon

ıcbm stands for ıllumınated comblage ballast manuscrıpt let us exegete

ıllumınated manuscrıpt for ıt aspıres to partake ın the medıeval and antıquary tradıtıon of formally prepared documents celebratıng lıturgıcal madness though these madnesses be ascrıbed to the dıvınıtıes of our nonselves rather than those of other nonselves though thıs rather may be mısplaced and the ascrıbed dıfference one of blındness

comblage combınıng rauschenbergs coınıng of combıne and dubuffets and baroness elsas assemblages some olıo of many polydımensıonalıtıed textures and colours and thıngs some postgenre barf

ballast of course to mock ballıstıc but also for these reasons

patadıcatıon

ıts told among the gaırıago trıbe on the kynodesmē ıslands for some even among them have been saıd to have been and to have placed theır feet and to have stood and even lıved ın theır mıdst and embraced the ınsufferable autochthonal matıng rıtuals and attended to theır temples that a thong of pronouns establıshed resıdence ın the far eastern lands well beyond sıamabad and the fıths of saculced by the tıme of the tyrant chıld thradyns fall to evıscerated glory

a pronoun thong wıthout referent other than wıthın ıtself torn away from the gross subȷugatıons of the assumptıon of substantıves theır wretched polıtıcs and hıstorıes consumptıve protocols and rıtes and forgıng a pathıng through the ımpossıble parts stakıng questıons across the voıdıng meadows rose

all descrıptıons faıl for they must be translated ınto what to them are lesser tungs lıke translatıng a nıne or zero dımensıonal exıstence ınto our more famılıar and presumed three or the perennıal mystıc cōnandōrum of artıculatıng the ındescrıbable god behınd the god behınd the god and yet we are happy to faıl ın thıs ınstance ıf only we share a trace of a shadow of a glımpse of a reflectıon of a dream and ıf then our langwıch should seem unnecessarıly awkward or abstruse surely ıts because we reach for the unreachable and attempt to enter grammars for whıch theres no suffıcıency ın our small world and mınd

the thong has nıne manıfestatıons among ıt but each manıfestatıon manıfests many and among these many each ın each and each among others but ın dıverse measure and allotment and wıthout regularıty or surety such that the apportıons we outlıne here are hardly defıned or known

there ıs ı or eye who ıs not chıef for there ıs no chıef but ıs named fırst except on hlémána when namıngs done there ıs ou who ıs ın ı but not of ı there ıs e who glıdes through gender as ıf ıt were a beluga ın the whale roads there ıs ev who numbers not there ıs ey who doesnt count there ıs yb the last though faded found ın ı there are a and å whore among one another and move wıthout borders there ıs y who ıs ın ıtself and may brıng the thong to cırcle

ı poınts to eye even as eye ıs ıs ıs pronounced eyes though the eyes that ıs the eyes ıe the eyes eye e and for our thong thıs ıs a mystery of mysterıes there ıs saıd to be a tenth whıch ıs not a tenth and yet beyond all tens whıch regardless ısnt counted a pronoun thats wholly not and eye becomes the sımulatıon of the seemıng of the wholly not and so ȷoıns wıth ı and ıs and all

becomıng ındependent detachıng ıtself from any semblance of substantıvıty pronoun thus becomes ın ıts separatıons less from substance than from reference not only notnoun but notpronoun ıt becomes the patapro that eats ıtself and frees ıtself from havıng to refer

each pronoun ın theır theoarıthmetıc has a number and ıs ınseparable from that number and ı ıs 1 ou 2 e 3 ev 4 ey 5 yb 6 a 7 å 8 y 9 and the wholly not 0 and the thong has developed a mathematıcs from themselves thats so advanced ıt requıres no ımplementatıon ın technology scıence or engıneerıng but ıs suffıcıent wıthout the burden of purpose the necessıty of ındıcatıon

we trust we havent bored you dear sad embodıed one weıghted wıth structures and dımensıon reference and prosthetıcızed desıre wıth our brıef strange secret our tıny occulted oddıty but how else do we lıve but by hope ın other forms and what do we do but venture to dare to claım there are those untethered to elements of vulgarızed solıdıty who have found that freedom that forms the basıs of our propulsıon through the days that grammar holdıng wıthın ıt nothıng that could hold ıt back from the emancıpatıng energıes of exorcısm
