Twelve Panes

 

 

approach track

numeric science

limber filaments

immersive sequence

 

teleport one to four

convergent alto

logrithmic medicine

wild program

 

sequent heart

political portal

trapezoidal sandbox

plot a function

 

raft trap

long hopeful haul

lopsided mind

transistor resurfacing

 

compartment trope

craft scatter

planer and scaler

rift city

 

toward seventy

untoward fifty

written utterance

trapdoor reminder

 

lift an archway

open future

port of tailors

port of editors

 

here this exists

separate and coherent

an object placed

in the window

 

planes and audio

pressure pointer

feeling escalating

pleasantly drifting

 

demons lurking

namelessly psychotic

annotating everything

naming distance

 

glass box of bees

swarming over

traces of sand

dusty snowglobe

 

particulate path

fleeing centipede

rampant recycling

river swelling
