and & and

an equation’s unusual beauty
borderline tropes and borders
and lines and the curvature and
hooks of glyphs, xs and ys and
the pivots of ‘of’ and ‘and’ or
the equals and equivalences:
a deep feeling for the way we
measure, or don’t measure, and
measure.

in three phases

based on words and blank slots

object had pretty much ceased

‘a punchy line about a vegetable garden.’

never not visual any more than not aesthetic

the part of the piano which holds the

imaginative excursions, wind-swept lovelies

hidden confusions, dialogia. everybody

wants china to fail. critically – good

flour can make good bread, swinging-

and-kissing, chunks of language.

go for your life, my love. Alice safely

sleeps upstairs. nice to see you: Homage
