every human being of word persuasion has tried to get smells down
has tried to keep them
this late-August air is of a very particular nature
to me
one that I would care to remain in forever
were it not for that most irritating reality of our
special psychology: the prerequisite for sensation:
Saturation and its Lack
ask anybody on the street, these days;
olfaction is the foundation of memory
the seasons – for the moment –
are relatively rigid,
thankfully
Autumn is necessary for my wellbeing
and I can always count on it arriving,
eventually
