FOAMING UTOPIAS

2019

I AM FOAM OF CELLS
THE FOAM ON TOP OF THE
WAVES WHEN THEY PREPARE FOR
YET ANOTHER MOMENT
OF
SWIRLING CONFUSION
THE POSSIBILITY OF ALL THE DIRECTIONS
CIRCULAR, LIKE TIME
THAT PASSES THROUGH
YET ANOTHER MOMENT
INTO REORGANIZATION
OF MASS.

Actually, I’m also foam of cells.
Foam becomes the edge of the wave,
the wave
becomes the ocean.

FOAMING UTOPIAS is an attempt to discover the potentiality of dancing in imagining, creating, and attending utopias. It expands from an essay and writing practice dealing with utopias as philosophical and embodied phenomena.
