Large Glass: The Bride’s Erotic Selfies and the Sum Over Histories
a transparent image
Duchamp called it
an apparition
of an appearance
cracks
in the image
and a reflection:
the viewer
reflected
physics asks
which photons
know
to go
through
glass and which
bounce
back
fin-
ally
light takes
every
possible
path
and we
(observers)
can only speak
of the aggregate
of all
possible
paths
art, apprehensible
from opposite
sides
romantic
about the apex
of mind meets
world
but living
too
a corporeal
existence
a black bra
is ordinary
pouty lips
and come hither
so basic
is her mid-life
she wants
to meet
her body
be-
fore
it is reflected
back
to her
in some distant
region of space-
time
pale
belly fat
I could keep
living
if I could just
be someone
else
for a change
