The switch from the axis of presence and absence to the axis of pattern and randomness helps to explain one of the oddest dynamics in this odd poem: the recurrent whisking of characters through switchpoints between contexts. Such transfers occur in a spark or a flash: the glance exchanged by Helen and Achilles at Troy, the blast as Helen vanishes down a set of spiral stairs during the fall of Troy, the flash in the heavens on the beach in Egypt. In each of these moments, we are asked to imagine the transmission of patterns from one context to another.31
