- displaced is the thread the loom cannot price Displacement forecloses both arbitrage and colonization, leaving foreplay — methodless oscillation at the boundary — as the only available mode; displaced libido keeps the loose thread taut and produces gradient rather than position, holding settlement and displacement in the same fabric.
- lichen is what grew in the afterimage A withdrawn stimulus leaves a shaped absence, and growth that colonizes this complement — as lichen fills the contours of a retreating glacier — is also where perspective on one's own adaptation first becomes visible.
