Liliana Porter  “man with axe”

sculptural installation called “man with an axe” in which a man in a suit and hat smashes up what appears to be the wreckage of the past,  chopping it into bits…

Things for myself

What the best and worst thing

about being in a relationship is: 

Well, it might just be realizing 

your lack of character

at times least expected —

like the time when all you wanted to do

was enjoy something sweet

from the menu at Finale in Boston. 

I have come back to the couch—hands behind my head, legs crossed at the ankles—to resume my lifelong study of the ceiling and its river-like crack, its memory of a water stain, the touch of civilization in the rounded steps of the molding, and the lick of time in the flaking plaster. To move would only ruffle the calm surface of the morning, and disturb shadows of leaves in the windows. And to throw open a door would startle the fish in the pond, maybe frighten a few birds from a hedge. Better to stay here, to occupy the still room of thought, to listen to the dog breathing on the floor, better to count my lucky coins, or redesign my family coat of arms—remove the plow and hive, shoo away the bee.
