The Long Low Structure
The Long Low Structure
the long low structure
the water-meadow an outpost the outpost “choose
the new international”
chevrons, and planes are chevrons
on the concrete, stairs on wheels, single-purpose vehicles
offwhites and greys, silvers that will not glint
a change –
of muscle density, the face –
tense – the face was tense, “not exactly
worried”, good
to see you
“and you”
