 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.
