5224. FACES TO THE FRIEZE

FACES TO THE FRIEZE
Giovanni's Room, 1956 : faces to the frieze;
immediately found  -  and just as immediately
lost again. STRIKE! Paterson 1913 Silk Mill
Strike! The man from Thomasine Alley; wool-blue
pancake cap. Treefoil lids and refolded clothes.
Box of silence : curved, not linear, logic.
A curvilinear 'Buskedelphia' and some
Liberty's light!
-
Tree on trash lid Gothic now :
'we moved here in, oh, 1973.'
-
To go slow is to meander like a
Roman Cross pattern.  Battle
flag of the Republic. Hymn.
Sun going down.
-
The ghost of Caitlin Maye.
The art of any period tends to serve
the ideological interest of the ruling class.
Fooling chase. Crowning periods of 
achievements even during the darkest
of ages. I am remembering your name.
-
Individualism posits equality.
Equality is inconceivable.
Culture bus! Boxes of Art!
Substitute armies to intangible
sources. Retrieval's mirror.
Drunken boat. Rimbaud curler.
-
I have no cosmos because
there is no cosmos. Life consists
of agility. Things in pieces OK.
'The sky has no surface and is
intangible. The sky cannot be turned
into a thing and given a quantity.
Here!
