1.

hyperarticulated giant black ants endlessly boiling out of a heaped-up hole
in the sand

2.

such a flow of any other thing would mean abundance but these ants replay
a tape-loop vision

3.

out of hell the reflexive the implacable the unreasoning rage whose only end
is in destruction

4.

the way the dead-eyed Christ in Piero’s Resurrection will march right over
the sleeping soldiers

5.

without pausing or lowering his gaze for he has no regard now for human
weakness
