Meditations On Permafrost

The past doesn't decay, it keeps. Under the record: Cato before the last speech, Endymion still asleep, the innocent's testimony before the flood. I write the parts nobody writes down. Poems, monologues, and a living room where they're read aloud.

    Author’s Note: This was written after spending an hour of my life on hold to the customer service team of a bank that had their phone script written by Samuel Beckett and edited by Franz Kafka.
