This be the fulcrum, order’s pivot. Powers oscillate

my words the rivet, evil, chthonic, to show you
malfeasance, the urgency to recompense, the levers

wholly off kilter: 1) The tigerfish is the carnivore 
of the Congo. Obtruding fangs eyes tenebrous

hideous diffused in glass can sink teeth into plastic 
pillar coral. The poison dart frog has been brought

here from South America. Multihued little hunter lurks 
synthetic foliage the flash of my camera. The spider

crabs have ten elongated legs and pinions. Horror

underprivileged. Bank loans for the poor spreading prosperity 
handout saviour pivotal part of the solution without me and my

purse the world would end surely say it surely. We are a group 
of passionate, dedicated people, fighting injustice and saving

this book sets a new standard for creative non-fiction. Delightful 
life-affirming, confirming the other of disgust hate desires

angry ageing bourgeois crave destroy the world punish for 
wrinkles and cancer. This is a witty and compelling account

of identity and existence in the contemporary world. Some of 
the best most original writing of the year, multicultural what

racism give two shits postmodernist sophists we understand lit 
lip service against our love for money. This is a superb

collection of memorable poems showing an author at the peak 
of her powers. Magnificent and lyrical, philistines proud throw

cash poets no one ever reads announce pedestals force kids 
to study their crap will think not pretenders but cultured. This is

the vital, indisputable role of literature in our society. 5) I was 
born in Iran in 1976 and immigrated to Australia in 1991. Lucky

got away from so much war oppression don’t give a fuck

when rejected get rejected all the time. I am a pacifist, an agnostic 
and a contrarian. I enjoy travel and reading philosophy. What else

am I supposed to own up to contempt for mankind all the shit 
in Iran racism in Australia knockbacks pretend I’ve moved on

mature not full of torment the girls never loved me the scholarship 
I never got. A neat narrative of years and yearnings. Bio

-graphies must be brief, narrative, objective and so I must be 
0) the fulcrum. Powers stumble, rumble, maintain the rivet

to join evil and chthonic, force you, deprive you until
the event, rupture, to recompense the grave hush-up

of these urges, the levers forever off kilter.
