“Putting On” Face
Soon a fface replaces another
—from “About Face” by Caroline Bergvall

“putting you on”

I traffic in FACE s

About you and me

All faces r diffrentends
A secret glaring
Face in glass structure
Throwing up

All FACES are ???s not a ways & a means of streets and thoroughfares

THE END

:[I have faced you, FACE
On many indecent occasions.
The issues were moot.
We discarded each instance
& reviewed each decision
To discard…the wrong face…
The incorrect behavior accorded “OUR” face at that moment…
The improper DREAM /the inadequate breeching…
One Face sans “THE(V)theOTHER” [as any intelligent hman being
Or (wo)man wld]
Never stranger /straw nger
Than wood en oui awl
Accept deathth’sss facesss as ONE
Loomin’ escent at cross

:she’s absolutely EVERYWHERE
You need to be, FACE (but featureless creature
