1. Art is temporary in the mind of the viewer—like the
vision in the past, it holds the viewer.
2. Anywhere art stands in being relation, art stands
alone, "being relation" being solvent upon matter.
3. Whichever way counts like others, is like others. In
art the same effort always precedes.
4. Being necessitates givens. Acquiring givens, like art,
is past procedurism pluraled.
5. Time threatens back to time-ic wondering, transforms,
adjusts, falls, like art, orange on a landscape.
6. Storyline coursing laterally, doomed to submission in
sand, springs back, clearly echoing art's values.
7. Height frequency zeroes backward to rocks—can I say
"purpled"?—purpled, like rocks in art's sister spokesman,
here.
8. The range might carry scratched earth, which way the
sun decides, touching in shadows as it goes. Art decides
whenever it goes.
9. The touch that generates pure space is forward. Can we
see it written about? Parallelism, art, come back into your
own.
10. Over there, it listens. Art possesses. A rainbow would
tell us not art—the edge of issues. In the dryness, I am
thinking.
