CCLXXXII
Bellini's Giovanni Enco
Organism Man is sudden-
ly surprised
with his pants down

& off! he gallops
in a swaggering
sweeping stampede

of calculated terror
all over Th'Surface
of his bumpy Soul

while

over Th'Chaos of
his numberless legs

running: The Who-
ever frightened him
witnesses plainly O
this:

Th'Great Illusion

of many specific &
distinct small creatures

but individuals

scampering off! in all
possible directions

& quite probables

over th'fence Improbable

impossible bugs &
vermins

(which is HOW Th'Man-
Organism defends itself

from predators &
creditors --In this mad
stampede of Chaos)

which is Mankind, O

how difficult it is
to say: What Part of Man's
inessential
         

      --BECAUSE it is
IMPOSSIBLE to tell
which

IS essential.
