Backtracking

WRITING in book__ annotating
NOT-WRITING in book __ annotating a state of grace
A time to reap

The index
Not-writing the unsaid _ to be found in quotients of
more experienced
incorrigible activity all day. Wait a minute. Problems of mind
From back to front.
An indistinct diet of difficulty _ selectively
Pondered in nouns _ from a few back pages of alphabetic
pulsations and values
Not quite predicted through strategic belief _ astonishing the table
Of contents upfront
Rays and everything

Rewriting a stop
Is a pause such that
It need _ not subsist on indemnity from unnamable _ care
Hours minutes seconds rewriting the book inside out _ rewritten.
Heretofore
The patent went to the thief
Disassembly _ of onerous share of fair share arousing Meucci _ to our time
To rewrite mere _ fame
The erased trust.
May I have a second of your timer? A time to reap _ valor and sorrow
