The japonaiserie of bay and islands
In the long rush of January clouds and storms
In the long rush of January clouds and storms
About six o'clock I take out my memory book
The moment turned inside out opens
Life moves the blood again, the veins are warm
The moon bathes nude in the thin cloud foam
Making ordinary landscapes appear fractured
Under the blue ceiling of an empty street
All night a boat swings as if to sink into a word
The body of this thought must be a star

ReplyDeleteVery nice, different day today -- no more blue, can't see the ridge, lots of wind in branches. . . .
ReplyDeleteHeavy rain last night, some big weather coming at the weekend. We're more vulnerable than one might wish, so...
ReplyDeleteAre you about to abandon the channel and the ridge for Gotham City? Not too long a trip one hopes, for the sake of the sequence. Grand monomaniacal projects should never be abandoned, or suspended for too long, especially when they dwell in the region of Earth Works. This one of yours is attaining the scale of Robert Smithson and the drowned tombs of the Nile Valley.
So is this going to be one of those 14 hour marathons like the one at Davis? Good to stretch out. NYC needs/deserves that. (My favorite part of any performance is the temps morts.)
