coil is a hidden universal. a code. a key for which the hole does not exist. is non-existant. in silence and secrecy. a spell. a spiral. a serpent etched around the female cycle. a whirlwind. a double helix. dna. electricity and elementals. atonal noise and brutal poetry. coil is amorphous, luminous, and in constant change. in-built obsolescence. in-built disobedience. a vehicle for obsessions. dream cycles in perpetual motion. we are cutthroats, infantile, immaculately conceived. diseased. the virus is chaos. the cure is delirium. coil are archangels of chaos. the price we pay for existance is eternal warfare. there is a hidden coil of strength, dormant, beneath the sediment of convention. dreams lead us under the surface, over the edge to the delirium state, unchained. past impositions with false universals. we assemble them into our order. coil. who has the nerve to dream, create, and kill, while the whole moves and every part stands still. our rationale is the irrational. hallucination is the truth our graves are dug with. coil is compulsion, urge, and construction. dead letters fall from our shedding skins. kabbalah and chaos. thanatos and thelema. archangels and antichrists. open and close. truth and deliberation. traps and disorientation. coil exists between here and here. we are janus-headed, plural. out of time, out of place, out of spite. an antidote for when people become poisonous.
