Break....

We shall be on our summer break for two weeks. We shall resume assorting again on the ninth day of June. For now we are leaving you with an ancient wisdom called Time to Stop:



Time To Stop

There are times
when
going to museums
makes you see



pointilliste anthills,

Picasso faces on milkmen
framed in the living room
window,


a violet shadow
all around a dead
or dying cow
and you come
back at night to see
how it looks
under the gaslight,

and after an accident,
blood
looks remarkably
like fresh paint.

Then it’s time to stop
going to museums
