S(c)aturation
Human saturation. Personality saturation. Gestural saturation. Overripe watermelons in the heat. Rinds of consumed melons lying by the edge of the road, licked by mongrels. Their skins matted, caked with mud, dust, blood. Mongrels in streetfights.
The dirt in your toes when you wear an open toed sandal. The dust in your mouth. Grains of dust between your teeth. The dust between your sole and the sandal. The dust between your sole and your soul.
Devout noisy flies. Devout, chaste, holy flies. Sacred flies. On rotting melons.
