BUNNY DAYS

When I visited the farm, the architect spoke for hours on the rigidity of worship chairs.

Her lines surround III. the nature of cleaning fish, and IV. matrimonial visions. Each

room offered a variety of medicine-lined cabinets, tables, and sometimes, when there

wasn’t enough room, the architect would provide a plastic-lined rug to display the

multi-colored bottles of drugs. Then, we were divided into two sections of audience:

those in the 60th percentile, and those in the 40th. This auditorium was devoted to

cures of zoonotic disease. The architect asked, at the request of a public health survey:

which civilized occupations are of the most value? And on our side of the room, we

loved the country’s greatest actors and engineers.

CASE STUDY

Having been given play, the baby enjoyed pasture-like landscapes until adulthood. He

asked for clean balconies in the new-build, so he could overlook the “rolling” cemeteries

during holidays or the New Year. Property, he decided, was a normal part of life. In fact,

he was no longer willing to be embarrassed about his wealth. Early in adulthood, Mr.

Flowers invested in a doll company that produced look-alikes. He bought the new

apartment to store prototypes, donated generously by the Town Company. Besides, he

liked the tombstones' awkward lengths and color. It reminds me, he decided, of daddy’s

teeth. On long walks, he often observed the plots in-depth, leaving behind

miscellaneous toys, rocks, and tea bags.

STORY II

In any case, it is boring to recount last year, and its effect on modern etiquette. I never

believed in rudimentary convictions such as: “no animals in the garden,” or “do not

embarrass a guest.” There are children’s books that point toward morality in a

non-philosophical way. To be good is to be X. Boils down to. And of course, decision,

where the “or” is ongoing. (Medievalists had nothing to do with it, nor rule-making.) You

see, the professor was often rude when given the opportunity. But I never let his

demeanors affect me. We hope you can make it this evening. There will be champagne

and potato chip caviar. Dinner and dancing to follow. So in between table manners I

behave like centuries. Then after three days, the fish begins to smell.

THE ENTRYWAY

I’m jealous of practical

items like square footage.

Did you notice the game

with manilla envelopes?

We put them in piles

to keep warm.
