the line becomes
a circle becomes
a figure 8 knot
the container becomes
to capture
the antibody
bifurcation matrix
the one
penetrates
what
the zero divides
under the pressure
of the red/black binary tree
of life.
the sepia tone desert
becomes its
reflection.
what is in what is not
and then
the line
becomes
a circle
becomes a figure
eight
knot.
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)
