15 FOOTNOTES TO A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DISTANCE COVERED IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY



(1) It is Said: only Violence is Viscerally in the Clear

(2) Indeed: My Desire is something like this

(3) It was the Body’s Failed Posture that this Picture of an Anchor-Pull I Conjūred

(4) And in the Drudge toward Home, The Little Mocking-Bird listens Carefully to the Prevailing Voice in the Heart: that of the Body Distancing itself from its own pound

(5) Listen Up: “I’ll Leave no Details Slacking, So don’t you Come Around…”

(6) Intimacy at Dusk, Received with the Gravest Superstition

(7) We Might Compose: the Story, the Animal, the Unwinding Memory of the Muscle of Love

(8) The Figure here Somehow Concealed

(10) Translation: My Ommi in her Rocking Chair, Waiting in the Nursery Home and Staring out the Window between two Poorly parted Curtains; she is waiting for Someone she once knew, Perhaps she once Birthed, someone she thought she might have once thought she knew, as if, someone once Mentioned; and into Focus: my Father, combing her Hair, as those eyes close, and that Smile begins to Form: Oh So-So Close

(11) And-----------------àIt All Came so Suddenly.” She Said.

(12) This City and its Lack of Snō, Oddly Envelopes us all the more, into an ever-increasing (-ily) Transparent and Desperate Look of Desire

(13) It’s Always about that Rushing Towards what seemingly is Set in its Way of Avoiding our Grasp

(14) This is a Smell that I Cannot Place, yet Habitating the Search, is Akin to Slithering into the Low Fog of a Barren yet Glowing awe

(15) in other words:----------------------------àthe Issue is not What the Emergency May be, nor Where the Emergency Might Occur, but only When the Emergency Will----------------àis” Itself into This
