about the artwork
the offensive is stuck in the mud
the borders remain given
the territories are an offset
filled with lamentations of the planes
the war is still stuck in the flesh
the wisdom of the animal remains human
and stupid in peace for comparison
to the war lists furiously infinite
poem by Kirstin Breitenfellner
we live and then we are dead
mortality weights
