the line becomes
a circle becomes
the container becomes an antibody
a figure 8 knot
to capture
the frozen landscape
reflected
under the pressure
of the line
becomes
a circle
the sepia tone desert
bifurcation matrix
red/black binary tree
of life.
and then the one
penetrates
the zero envelops
what is in what is not
and becomes its
reflection.
Computer poetry is warfare carried out by other means, a warfare against conventionality and language that has become automatized. Strange as it seems, our finite state automata have become the poet’s allies in this struggle, the long historical battle by which mankind pries into the surface of language to reveal its latent mysteries… R.W. Bailey, Computer Poems (1973)
