"... a splintery self ..."

Million a tesserae was shattered he
no possible,no with together putting
back . Front,sides,of splinters a spintery
self,remainder of a,a window shutting -
glass that so fell smashed and out look ! fuck damn
on stones the there lay if as malevolent
bare feet for unnoticing - with a slam
eh ? what ? a pieces in man,in a meant
fragments,heart,rags skin instead of a .
Overcasing the state ? was he ? know,you -
mosaic means bits. So do tesserae
before done the work, to make them,what ? do
things together ? Is a ? make do ? to whole
(denied a man in love fragments his soul) .
