'Jade is to bathtub as soap is to bell'

Lily Pickett & Justin Caguiat
October 7 - November 30, 2017

Black curtain in front of plate glass window,
to darken room for slide show
Schubert quintet in a major D.667, colloquially known as 'the trout'
Pay attention to the instrument cases behind black curtain
Esp. Bass case.
Kelly & gruzen  type window
Man with scoliosis in grey linen suit
Dairy pure 1% in carton with straw
Trumoo milk carton strawberry
Man sitting in garbage can
Burnt oranges
Body disappears from scene;
Finding body in bathroom stall;
In the end it wasn't Laurinda at all:
It was Marpessa.
Pretzel monitor
Remembered the child's light colored eyes from the doctors office and now, 5 years later,
recognized him again in the same neighborhood,
Now a young teenager.
A photostat of the invitation was viewable at the library.
The font wasn't yet released the year the document was purported to be printed
Helvetica 1957

Times New Roman 1932
Jade is to bathtub as soap is to bell
Erase a word from vocabulary after your statement
Overalls were in fashion again
This area, it was known, would be submerged in 40 years.
