The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for August 2006

‘if not for the
monads
then spinoza
would be
right’
        and
we would
be what
we are
           so
i search

through my nail
clippings hair
trimmings
follicles and
skin flakes
                  not
to mention
other un
mentionable
                   residues
and i
find bits of
me only

but
      spersed
through other
bits
    
      of
           my
dead cat and
someone else’s
occasional sweat

and memories...

a
hah! the mind-
monad
           joyless
and self-
completing

dead as Liebniz

but alive as i
am i am
