Assembled figure towers over,

made of whirlwind figure submerged,

tears two colours shredded stream pulls down,

half head, shrapnel floats fast,

centered in mirror image insect, woman centered in stream,

scars on plain, line carves outline,

outlines cross and make visible barely this,

forms fold in, transfer alters language,

codes made compact, highway turns intestine,

figure towers over, mouth in middle, diagonals carve,

floating present worldwide made here, streams double,

relevance cracks,

electronic clouds wage war with fields,

heads ripped off, heads migrate, colours make worlds,

transferred into oblivion (assembled) figure (towers) over,

intestine streams migrate,

two images and highways present war with oblivion,

(made) of (whirlwind) figure (submerged)

tears (two) colours (shredded) stream (pulls)
