This title features "Adorno on the Gold Coast" - who can blame the barometer for being called a gauche gauge which in any case is better than guage, or body thermometer oracle of the oral cavity that cannot stop your torso from wheezing in sync with the refrigerator set one notch below very very cold as the crimson rosella seems to have recovered from its defenestrating flight and tottered sous la guage affixed to the garage next door and you just don't know how to pick through what was discovered the year after the war the one with more casualties than the one before or how to deliver O2 to your lungs as they collapse slowly inside you and the facts wander across the screen some punk stole in your sleep the week you lost your keys & the bird shakes itself into the air to struggle in silence for a limb that is not there.
