ecce signum

[tectak]

the wilt of the face into sagNice opener but I can see already that puctuation is not a consideration
a complement to living in this vestiage of humanly ragsOoops! Maybe spelling is a little in need of tightening , too. Could you check out before posting in serious crit as it is tedious mentioning this kind of error. VESTIGE
is it blessing or curse, to feel all without recourse?
only a mordant heart can weather the worstMordant? Not sure about this. There seems to be an error here. Mordant has a fairly tight meaning but ....well, you look it up.

the argumentative finger
authoritatively combined with the finality of the fist
a congenial covenant to living
sealed with a forced kissVery nice stanza. It would almost certainly be improved in its percussiveness by some creative punctuation. No punctuation leaves the reader wondering if interpretation is worth bothering about. I mean, if you are not bothered, why should I be. That's fair, isn't it?

to touch, to play, to mold
all desires are one:
to comb this mangled face into a
moppet of volition This is a difficult concept. Though "moppet" is fairly well accepted as an endearing term for a child, or more historically a rag-doll, to pair it with "volition" seems counter-intuitive. If I need to have it explained it is probably my failing.....but I need to have it explained.

ah, to be alone!Naively over dramatic, Miss Garbo, and not necessary, though still making isolated sense. Could you restructure this line to lead more convincingly into the next....oh. Somnambulate gaiety? Perhaps not.
somnambulate gaietyWhere did this come from?
the barren desert is my best friend.HUGE leap into the unknown. This is now going nowhere fast. You need to pull it back on track. I have just realised I have no idea what this is about. Forgive me. I need to get on track myself.
ecclestical bells ring in my heart....That's better. Spelling-ecclesiastical. Phew, thank goodness for that. I was becoming pleasant

feeling creation is not merely a beautiful work of artNow this DOES need punctuation. Are you FEELING CREATION or feeling that creation is not.....that is, the question...er....see what I mean
whether we go or whether we stay
the result is the same
for a time, we were only gameAre you game m'dear? Yes,she said. So he shot her.

Some nice bits in this but it is let down by the surprising lapses in intent and apparent incompetance (spelling, word knowledge). I am happy to be wrong and then must accept that you write in haste and do not check what you put up for crit. If this was tightened up it would be...er...tighter; but I am not sure it would be of any increased consequence. Overall, I have no idea what it is about....perhaps that doesn't matter. Oh, and as a by the by, I spent fifty years of my life in the boolean algebra of logic electronic circuitry. Ecce signum was the battle cry of the truth-table conquered but I do not recognise its use in the title. Perhaps you could explain?
Best,
