INVESTIGATION, After Sandy Florian's AWAKENING

in response to Sandy's poem, 'Awakening'.
by Amanda Deutch


Speaking of air
filth of the night
something barely discernable to the eye
soaked in duplex and pearl

one must ask oneself sometimes
“Why do I insist on staying awake?”
It is simply that—an insistence.

reflection in the métro
mistake it for someone else
wave

dirt under your eyes (lids)
eyes’ lids
and yet more staircases

maison de l’air

house of air
