As soon as the incoming stream of sounds

gives the slightest indication

consider the real act of moving

when we figure time as a line or circle

when mechanical gesture takes the place

when automatic operations are inserted

into the automatic world

vowels are uninterrupted streams of energy

and thought is a movement

from acoustic signal to the combination

of muscular acts

sewing machines and machine guns

made their appearance

saints and pilgrims
