Repository

Stand before me,
my life of desire, my intentional arc.
Radically rooted in the world,
reality and fantasy
rhizomatically twined.

I hadn't before come across the word "rhizomatically", but I'll now add it to my repertoire of sesquipedalian words I like to trot out at social gatherings, so desperate am I to impress people on account of my, like, low self-esteem.

And I like that you said reality and fantasy are rhizomatically twined, rather than that they are rhizomatically entwined, or rhizomatically entertwined.

In any event, to be "rhizomatically" twined, entwined, or entertwined, sounds refreshingly different from the cliched, "inextricably" twined, entwined, or entertwined.
