Bond, Structure.
The new foundations have filled with water, birds are bathing on a field of grey and a black dog loitering on the road runs to stare at them through the fence.
What kind of finish are you? I am the colour of sealed rimu. You might be raw pine. I think we should discuss light sources. I want to incorporate levels. Every space must have a sense of going somewhere.
Respond: your flesh filling,
meet me at the round table.
I have built us a fort in the stairwell,
I have seen the lights turn on
with just a look.
This building has been proofed
for earthquakes, a typographic
reading for disaster.
What kind of finish are you?
When you open your mouth
I see your tongue is made
of particle board, you are a reconstituted
being. What glue
holds your buds together?
What is flowering in your gut?
I want to talk about light sources.
On the bus, the sun shot in sideways
and for a moment I couldn't see.
The package in my hands - red
like the light through my eyelids.
The lady opposite watches as I
remove my coat, her mouth scrunches.
We press buttons to request an exit.
The black dog looks up
and watches us pass.
I have been looking for a trap door.
I have been looking at the plans.
I think we should discuss light sources.
I am opening the red package,
I am getting ready to respond.
