Egress
“Synopsis”
Blackness trapped in Black hole - ‘whole’
not so much a hole as a ‘hole in the wall’
blackness emerges from black hole
in form of black man
converges with blackness
black womyn arrives in black
senses the hole
other black womyn adds to blackness
black womyn likes other black womyns added blackness
blackness envelopes blackness
circa three’s company’s distilled matrix version ala NOIR
