A multi-media body of “projectiles”
large unidentified mass
Shape-shifting
Objects thrown into space (empty or not) by the exertion of force
Low-speed sequencing
the poltergeist moves through
slapping, slopping, sloshing, sloughing
The body of sonics
suck-back from a “BOOM”
Self-amputated and trans-mutating
this recycled apocalyptic trash-slut
A torso of whatever
