“I developed a very mild but persistent case of the hiccups. Can hiccups be caused by brain cancer? I asked Google. Yes, it answered—if it is advanced.” @WilliamRees0 on hypochondria—an excerpt from his new book (@CoachHousebooks) now on PW Broadcast. https://t.co/81tcbU6TgQ

THE ORPHIC CIPHER

Below is the code used to correlate the two poems from THE XENOTEXT.

"'Living Things,' then, is not a work that ascertains its social service [...] Instead, it is documentation of one writer in the throes of resisting neutralization."
