What I meant was... I’m relaxing into my decay in chemical colors A toxic miasma glides up the coast masked finfoots and sooty albatross meadows unmurmuring Green marzipan raspberry jam garish insects glisten in my palm Making afterlife notes for my ancestors I tear me to slivers then bring them back to life -Zoe Brezsny Sinkhole Project, Baltimore MD – Sinkhole Project is a curatorial exercise by Joe W. Speier which treats a fence in Baltimore, MD (and sometimes elsewhere) as a physical pintrest board for works of art.
