It will soon be our expression that profound darkness, fall of matter from the sky, lights in the sky, and earthquakes are phenomena of the near approach of other worlds to this world1 Charles Fort said, he spoke

Beset upon a lozenge sable bezanty–whereas in lights it’s blazing or upon or, in violating the Rule–its other side of a color–spotted with sanguine stain, upon a pale and on the honor point the field–gules guzy, I’m in the car comingback through the dark I am getting woozy

We can be coming that way, in the car

Out beyond the leveled fields, through copse of holm oak, ironwood, hedgeapple, quaking aspens the whitish arcs of light, actinic sparkings–an industrial park, afterhours, but it’s nightly irrupted by galvanic light, it’s confounding the nyctinastic action in the latefall aster flowers I guess we can be coming that way

They find my body in bonds upon the lip of a little blue cattlepond in Wakeman, it had been abandoned within the blonde bonecolor circlet of phragmites that ring that water around. The common reed, they bow in the wind, with the ears a stormy shale bluegreen, flecked with white foam, tinged with vermilion. The field is bound by U.S. 20, by the L.S.M.S. railbed kept from the Inland Trail, by S.R. 59 or Townline–where they meet, and the Chappel Creek crosses–and by the Fitchville River Road. A hank of her finebrown hair is found wound into the lining of a yellowthroat’s nest, the which is suspended over shallows on a mooring of reeds–and within a yard of my left ear. So they call her in for questioning my head crowned by black swallowwort with its lanceshape leaves, elsewhere it climbs a fence and aboveground gaslines by the roadsedge.
The blood has settled in my lips, pale unclear through a screen of petrolatum–it’s congealed or clouded by the cold. On October 8th, a Norfolk Southern freight derailed in passing over Columbus Avenue, washing the bridge, road, and embankments in white paraffin wax and I died with seven shallow stabbing wounds withinto my abdomen. Besides the contents of my stomach–wide purplewhite trumpets of Datura stramonium, accounting for my limbs were just tied with five-ply jute–I had been carried or dragged down from the Chappel cross, high from rains. Whistle noises of water, its cant or canter when it churns in torrent anent new rapids of shale in shallows in riffles if she had done it then she could have come from the Lake, anywhere between there and where from fountainveins the creek arises, in fens behind a construction company.

Although there isn’t any double eye–or I thought they said, but that is Identifying Information upon my person–insofar as a person is a body, which there is still among the reeds–and, although torched both my feet to charcoal from the midcalf down, nevertheless whoever did nothing to my hands, my fingers, my fingerprints, or my teeth. Besides where the blood stilled in its circuit of my gums, besides also–did not for instance open the book of my body, panting endpaper lungs liver intestines tonsils tongue and its thready waterworks ruddy freckled with muds–that after forensic examination, they found through the careful application of tonguedepressors a green clot of cladophora.
It was wound in knots, sprung from and clung to zebra musselshells. These were anchored by their byssus through between and to my teeth. The body had not been in the water long–had not at all–but the mouth and nose? Wired open perhaps, and submerged, there were signs of that. Further questions: an implant of mine. Tapered titanium screw, of that the crown of Human Tooth No. 5–that is the first bicuspid, it had been affixed to the abutment by an as far as I know speculative bonecement, composed with cupronickel nanoparticles, the effect of which–the effect with which we are further concerned, I mean–was: that the mussels could not anchor thereto. That is, my teeth in brown escalopes barry benthygreen or–platy vert, I mean marram grassclear glasscolor–they were filmed and filamented allover, except there that brightwhite and argent spot Otherwise, my disgusted gums my grimn disgorged that

As had been my own mouth, my other teeth the fawn color of steeped teas, these too–they were all overcome with lacustrine greenblack, a silty a scintillant lacquer of fine fingernail mussels and fines of murk, and they did find musselsshells under my nails.

Object suddenly appeared head on and appeared to be7 5D 24-21F George E. Swinford at D.O. #5, Wright-Patterson A.F.B., Dayton, O. none this is an initial report The investigation is predicated upon information received from Mr. I. P. Hillyard That he had seen an unknown object approximately four miles west of Vermilion, Ohio Hillyard tried to sight object after passing said object but failed to sight this object again8 I had an unusual incident occur Over the lakeshore An object was observed I pulled up into a steep right turn and completed a turn to the right To observe the object I decided the object may have climbed into the clouds9
The foregoing is not the result of a vivid imagination10
The fate of all explanation is to close one door only to have another fly wide open. I should say that my own notions upon this subject will be considered irrational Or the black rain of Canada, November 9th, 1819. This time it is orthodoxy to attribute the black precipitate to smoke of forest fires south of the Ohio River–11
Zurcher, Meteors, page 238: that this black rain was accompanied by Shocks like those of an earthquake12
Edinburgh Philosophical Journal, 2-381: that the earthquake had occurred at the climax of intense darkness and the fall of black rain The profound darkness Its concomitants: lights in the sky fall of a black substance shocks like those of an earthquake13 For all I know soot from a very great fire south of the Ohio might fall By some freak of reflection light from it might14
