Forgotten Ground Regained

Antimatter

Pedro Poitevin
Particles of evil ‧ live in the dispersive night of the wolf, flow in its nothingness, fragment as their sleep ‧ peels off in slender flakes of time, emit shreds of flesh like a quantum leper, repel our light with waves of mood, doom everything that matters.
