_The Library Eye_

the blossoming lamp
 in the print prevails like a huge dark blue peacock on the 
almond rug beyond the edges of the priestly earth like the monastery of the oral
world through the world

 that my loss of the self carries on and so the change of
my name in the library eye like the monastery of the oral world beginning at the
same pace I begin beginning me beyond the edges of the almond rug
