This is shattered fragment of a stumbleupon blog, long since now defunct, where I used to store favourite images, and attach poems to them (or vice versa). Just goes to show that for all its claims of ubiquity, the digital domain doesn't give you much of a purchase in permanence.

Learning to Die
Jean Jukes 1926-2004
Wisdom has been called
Learning how to die
But death is stupid
Forgetting everything
Unlearning all those lessons

How to defecate
How to breathe

Measure by measure

Something... no it's gone
O death is so stupid
Forgetting who you are
You who taught me
Everything
