In archive 2 I decided to list all the unfamiliar words (or phrases) I encountered in my readings the past two weeks.
I noted each word I didn’t know from various essays, poems and articles I read during the couple last weeks.
Then, I collaged the words into a short paragraph that doesn’t make any sense at all.
I took words from: W. B. Yeats’s, Easter 1916, Duncan Wallach’s Museum Of Modern Art, de Waal’s Hare With Amber Eyes, Preston Remington’s Bedroom From The Sagredo Palace, Naomi Shihab Nye’s Famous and Niel MacGregor’s, A History of the World in 100 Objects.
To murmur his herringbone acquisitions,
pristine slabs in motley cornice and silts chalet,
A casement ruffled, reprimand, bosom brindled; Styrofoam
knappers foist haste:
Well-entrenched zeal dappled the patina to snarl medlar alcove.
Condominium tremble blotter, toggle sheaf brim, fraying memory. One chequered chiding and vortex stubble, gibe harriers?
