more notes :

unpack more notes from the slow magic show
cities in boxes with stickers that glow
rome here and holland, if we can go dutch
honolulu and tissue and miss you and such
cannisters, bannisters, barrels of oak
and I do not recall if ever I spoke
about things disappearing with a distracting snap
the magic you tried to keep under your hat
as we were all waiting for that one thing to come back
a promise, a mission, a lady, a laugh
probably everything ever that felt sawn in half

Construction

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wicker woven terms, sheltered revisions
furniture fables remodeled, retold
exigent blueprint redefinitions
passions built to scale, possessed or resold
edifice rising from scaffolding bare
through living rooms and lifeless exhibits
hammering verses, tooth and nail repair
budget veneers over unowned templates
superstruct fancy through connecting doors
inching unfurnished to restoration
the reneged construction of set contours
in pencil marked hopes for preservation
lines drawn on unrolled scrolls of conjecture
hoping to summon your architecture
