Experiment: two irrational primes shift

the horizontal plane of an unswept floor;

parabolic algorithms of Cuvier and tequila

collide in a skitter of projectile shoes;

a.m.'s rain-caked windows skew solar telegraphs,

prismatic intersections no longer able

to mathematically express the root

of who fucked who first and where;

Euclidean geometry tested,

but data, ultimately, unproven;

subjects exposed to relative uncertainty

in the stark, glaring angles of noon.

Listen to Angela read the poem.
