March, 1992

Morton Feldman beneath the infant fold
anonymous proximity: weather situates the accident

"the reawakening of the voice always presupposes a break,
an irreversible distance from the lost object"

acacias on canvas, Dear Claudia, partials encourage at length
because coffee is landscape the room is Japanese

aquarium on paper adheres to recent language
monk insisted absence: discarded leaves emerge in thought

habitual attachment, shoulders to glass
unanswered asphalt recurs, insisting late shelves

pedestrians cling to excessive rain
Yayoi-cho, Bunkyo-ku: Nagai Kafu receives address

accident on the bridge delays morning traffic
paste acacias on asphalt, inhabitants wrapped in furniture

plate splotches Eriko married to Shibuya station
aquarium imposes delay: distance prompts a new dialogue

laundry complete: blouse pocked by detergent
subtle folds interlude as weather

"mistaking someone's bracelet on a table for an ashtray”
Pablo slouches in dub: percussive pockets count as coffee

"by the way, can you add a rabbit?"
Beckett is peeling someone else's raincoat

regional dialect, partial envelopes
Emigre arrives in the mail: 2 intersects square in Soviet brown

vacant boutique as film music
unexpected rain, passengers decide on their kilometers

Akiyoshi Kumiko clusters to Leonard Cohen
children speaking Chinese adjacent to the airport

Marlowe retrieves Monique's message
the decisive dialect is film, kilometers fold in vacant rent

KSAN 1969: Aki no Tetoron wa Teijin des’
"these clocks were installed by the lowest bidder."

Shibuya station remains inconclusive: questions are not evidence
pavement is accurate: slightest rain and the passengers arrive
