the slurry

as ideas move across, a wet

interaction will form, made

of material from the sharpening

mind and the listener--it is important that this

remain in the poem to facilitate

slippage and friction

as the moisture in the language

slurry re-applied to the reading act because

it contains all the particles—the pieces and fragments

of thought up until that point in the

text—and so will contribute to the

meaning: fine, keen, ready to work
