the terms of Gehenna became wormwood. all adversaries spoke the symphony of masks written on the shape of God's name. the vicious sympathy forms the cross array full of arrows at certain angles. furrows full of schemata. released to escape thither.

Japheth colonists fashion the widows of GOD out of our fathers. who art in heaven. hell owe be thymine. purposed his sons upon Shinar. Sow Revelation all our glow to ripening gods whose trees curse us.

Computer poetry is warfare carried out by other means, a warfare against conventionality and language that has become automatized.

Bailey, Computer Poems (1973)
