Constructions follow a format But the formats are loose, They do not manage to contain, What stays is a fraction of what goes away. The ability, or the agility Of the net to knit itself To trap all the fish, Does not exist. Just like water, small fish and weed, Escaping the net is also a part of the design. To keep something, You have to let something go. That is how filtration works. The capacity of language to assemble via the construct of grammar is well known. But some texts fall apart…

Risk is always the barrier that stands between us and the new pattern of sociality that can disrupt our lives. This…
The tendency to identity the public as a group that have distinct boundaries is a fault. The public is a crowd and anyone can be included in the idea of a crowd. Strangers and known people cannot be distinguished. The participation of strangers cannot be qualified. What can be qualified is the set of social connections through which a particular group is formed.
