from City of Circumstance
alluvial earth assembly line
geodiferous limestone urban renewal
lias limestone what’s good for _________
salt is good for the nation
quicksand police raid on a blind pig
yellow clay you are here •
a language
like all languages
exchange
code
signs
reciprocities
city of accumulation
city of lack
a one-horse town
a limiting case
city of erasure
city of weight
Things I loved:
the river
the library
Dally in the Alley
empty buildings
knowing people everywhere (& liking them)
Ford-Wyoming Drive-in
old socialists
sitting under I-94 overpass
biking on Belle Isle
feeling invincible
Things that scared me:
wild dogs
Constance getting punched on the bus
expensive homes on shitty streets
mice
Workers World Party
Parker Foods
and yet the city exhibits grace warrants blessing it is when it is stripped laid bare that it is most worthy of being exalted of being loved
love is form, and cannot be without/important substance – Olson
+++
city of reluctance
city of pallor
city of invention
city of necessity
city of conscience
the city as linguistic act
the city is a linguistic act
a city a linguistic act
the gulf between us
yet structures exist
no space disappears completely
(no body)
