You forgive the catachrestic siren 
of the grackle. Petroglyphs, then 
petrochemicals. In the   museum, 
there is a soundless   installation 
dedicated to the rooms in  which 
music     is      performed,       with 
concave chairs—with   patinated 
cymbals.    Close   cousinage    of 
“lacunae”   to      “lacunar:”      an 
arched roof or a ceiling.  Lacking 
proof of the mind, one senses for 
a    deep     homology       between 
rococo furnishings. The colophon 
inflects a   book      with its     own 
reduction.  About  the idea    that 
can    only   ever   be        accessed 
through negation: about forgery: 
one first abstracts  before   finally 
adopting an   artist’s mannerisms. 
One deliberately  pencils beneath 
the   completed  painting        false 
sketches,     perceptible to    x-rays.
