 still unknown  to me, other than through 
   dreams*. apparently made for making    
 holes. they may be dark and  monochrome. 
              they may not.               
                                          
 white  powder,  dosed  by  way  of  key? 
                                          
                                        
  
                                        
                                          
 *a  red  cylinder,  wide  as  a  finger. 
      glossy freckled ceramics, with      
     something organic inside, being      
 corrupted before  your eyes - turning to 
 ash, but there's no  flame.  you hold it 
 up  to  your  nose,  suck it in  with  a 
 sharp   inhale.  exit  to  the  balcony. 
                                          
 here  on  the fifth floor, with  a  view 
 over  the  parking  lot,  things   start 
       folding into each other, like      
  collapsing a cardboard box. dimensions  
   becoming flat and adjacent. pressed    
 into each  other.  creases are flattened 
 out, distances disappear,  the world  is 
 mangled  down  to  two  dimensions.  and 
 suddenly  light  falls  on  the edge  of 
 everything  rather  than the surface: it 
        all goes completely dark.
