FLUXIIS
Originally published in Taper #12: Tools

An instructional poem generator for experimental rituals, inspired by the participatory performance pieces of the Fluxus art movement. Each poem is constructed from lists of words informed by canonical dozens (the Western and Chinese zodiacs, the Greek Pantheon, the Twelve Days of Christmas) and the occult tools of the Minor Arcana (wand, cup, pentacle, sword). The instructions combine the mundane, abstract, and absurd, and invite the reader to use them as tools of their own interpretations.
