Lenz's Concavity cult-lore (p. 562)

quote

Lenz shudders just at the thought of the raging Powerlessness he'd feel, he shares, lost and disorientated, wandering in circles in blinding white frozen points due north of all domesticated men, forget the time not even knowing what fucking date it was, his breath an ice-beard

Context

Lenz imagining being lost in the Concavity: "wandering in circles," outside time, and the word he reaches for is Powerlessness — the AA First-Step term. The addict's loop projected straight onto the annular landscape, by a man currently relapsing.
