I give you an untamed afternoon blowing blackbirds off course
Clerks chase a yellow memo through the park
--Carolyn Stoloff, Slides
Knowledge is sequence, not tense, and in that sense space, not time,
is ticking in our heads and matter is all that matters.
--Morton Marcus, The Big Broadcast
The water in your flower vase five days old,
my radio losing its signal as the sky
draws near.
--Timothy Liu, Forty Percent Chance of Rain
Last night I burned three hundred calories dreaming about your hair
--John Engman, Terrible Weather Conditions
I take the rainy landscape from my window
remove the shadow of the wutong tree
wipe you off
--Yang Mu, The Woman In Black
