Poetry: Ekphrasis for artwork "Screening Process" - Ariel Riveros

There are snakes everywhere

organising weak processes

and rainbows




Our organisation, my

friend. We've been

through constraints

darkness, laughter

In worlds that don't

see the outside

normate complaint.

Punctuate clocks.




the border exchanges,

doorframe, cytochrome

p460, polygenomic funded

gasoline, hazard and charles.




Quit aquel.




Our organisation, snakes

everywhere. I hear

hisses in downpours.




Pouring with voices

Porous with black

sky and the rust

of chains. Jangle

the colliery and

lullabied with

burns. Fogbow

to senses.




You have enough

love laughing.

best friend absolute.

Irony to a cartoon

reference. The

halitosis of lava

muttered on the

medicine cabinet

gang. What can

you contribute

to our organisation?
