Now totally destabilised, Simon’s world falls apart. As an act of symbolism he writes in blood Simon and Zoë either side of a cassette case. He attempts to bury himself in a small rest garden. Next day he goes shop-lifting in the belief that he is totally invisible.
The whole bit
The prow
The fleeting moment
Re-metamorphosed
Position A.
On the run
Walking the paving
Simon’s lurching
The earth and him
Clay-man
Plaster-cast
The Ship of Fools
The Aldiss supermarket
Simon vanishes
Every angle, every direction
