partch - visual poem

The first of two pieces based around a form that seems to have emerged from nowhere to fascinate me. I may write more about this later. It also seems have associated itself with the word partch. Initially in fact I had parch in mind, but the Harry Partch reference seemed to make a kind of sense.

Actually this is the second of three pieces. The first one, sonnet : partch was done for my MA for next week, but I may post it here later. Arguably there have been four of these, including an untitled discarded attempt which featured the form on the right, a left hand brace or curly bracket ({) to the left of that, and a dot to the left of that. But it looked awful.
