The Poetry of
Michael G. Khmelnitsky

in the land of images
there are no non-absolutes
only the rigid form of
the ellipsis and the ra
pid incongruity of
the vagina and the por

cupine  the etymo
logy of shoe soles
and  what else  an un
derstanding of wisdom in
and out of the understan
ding of images there is

nothing incomprehensi
ble in me  only sets
of power and the matri
culation of elemen
tal thought and power
power and thought of ima
ges and their understanding
