Absences by Arun Sagar
The world is filled
with Mondays
and mint
and wild grasses
at the edges of the fields.
People are waiting
in the city, in large
waiting rooms,
reading newspapers.
You are not here, but
I am everywhere,
turning the sunlight
into sunlight, that chair
into a chair, turning
all things into their names. Art by Yoco Nagamiya Recommended listening: Rock N' Roll Queen - The Subways Links of the Day: The First Flower Grown in Space Directors who cameo in their own movies One Line Portraits by Quibe DEA patches from the 70s to 90s
