i don’t expect you to recognize the silence
the opposite, if I plunge
penetrating my mouth
in waiting
meditating on how to burn
new sentences form between narrow limits
entering paradoxical x-rays
pure absence shows itself contained
in eyes that recognize nowhere
nature descends in agreement
endless sweating doubt
before its form returns
discontent spews in a love tongue
a far hypothesis of available words
out
lips in me awning
invisible suddenly liquid
thing

endless sweat from doubt

discontent horror spews in a love tongue

ALTERITY TRINITIES
she writes on alterity it has already begun a third person that is also me, i iii = i from the perspective of three bodies, that are also one the mother, the daughter, the holy cunt bodily religions in specific, genital religions the daemonic power of genitalia the body/organ that speaks in tongues
alterity, to imagine the inside a sun or an eye inside the hole a filled body
she reflects on alterity i i i fragmented i she her they them alters altering alter altering sacrifice the i into thirds i - i - i (fig 1, alterity trinity figure) horizontally (i without dot) acephale (headless) I vertically (iii) exponentially like zenos arrow the sliced body consumed (ostia) by you, them, us alterity is the in between body the gaps fissures or the wounds of the whole alterity from the Descartes gouged eye/i the hole through which we enter / the hole that expels a simultaneous entering and exiting, the friction of the movement friction and pleasure / pain oscillation hollow and filled hollow pain, filled pleasure, hollow pleasure, filled pain are you willing to shatter the ideal? look at my eyes, see the shattered blood vessels how they burst especially at the interior corners, the iceberg melts the body bleeds heat and cold collapsed in time a body opposite collapsed in a labyrinth of information how to cannibalize an aggressor at some point you will be utterly humiliated the subhuman stares flat on the ground i can take your skull in my hand and burst it with my grip

Already, by work, by his transformation of the natural world into a technical world, he manages to escape from the nature which was the basis of his slavery in that he did not know how to raise himself above it by accepting death* *does the advent of the technical world suppress death or the fear of death in the natural world?

Rebellion kills men while revolution destroys both men and principles. But, for the same reasons, it can be said that there has not yet been a revolution in the course of history. There could only be one, and that would be the definitive revolution.

The cult of uncertainty is a revolt against reason-so, in ethics, the cult of moral grayness is a revolt against moral values. Both are a revolt against the absolutism of reality.

To love is to value. Only a rationally selfish man, a man of self-esteem, is capable of love- because he is the only man capable of holding firm, consistent, uncompromising, unbetrayed values.

Quote
Productive work is the road of man's unlimited achievement and calls upon the highest attributes of his character: his creative ability, his ambitiousness, his self-assertiveness, his refusal to bear uncontested disasters, his dedication to the goal of reshaping the earth in the image of his values. "Productive work" does not mean the unfocused performance of the motions of some job. It means the consciously chosen pursuit of a productive career, in any line of rational endeavor, great or modest, on any level of ability. It is not the degree of a man's ability nor the scale of his work that is ethically relevant here, but the fullest and most purposeful use of his mind. The virtue of pride is the recognition of the fact "that as man must produce the physical values he needs to sustain his life, so he must acquire the values of character that make his life worth sustaining...never Accepting unearned guilt and never earning any, or, if one has earned it, never leaving it uncorrected - by never resigning oneself passively to any flaws in one's character.

Since everything man needs has to be discovered by his own mind and produced by his own effort, the two essentials of the method of survival proper to a rational being are : thinking and productive work

Quote
An organism's life is its standard of value, that which furthers its life is the good that which threatens it is the evil [...] the pleasure/pain mechanism in the body of man serves as an automatic guardian of the organism's life [...] consciousness is the basic means of survival. For man, the basic means of survival is reason.
