Wonderwater—Roni Horn/Louise Bourgeois

as in the rough stream of a glacier the ice holds a splinter of bone, a blue petal, some oak trees, and rolls them on.
—Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway

1. Song Sung Glue

The librarian who doesn’t know how to read     She sets the books in rows     Ear Lubricant is necessary     Curiosity is not                         (do not wake the cat,                         which is sleeping,                         understand your limits)

I make the research     You make the connections

2. I’m A Star In NY

To have the energy and the persistence to     to replace fear by trust or at least by     by expectation

3. O Wo Is Mio

Sometimes I try to make people admit that they do not like the anatomy of a want               (me)     Finally, I guess they don’t

4. I Am That I

Sometimes I try to make people admit that I am portrayed by what I do not know.     Finally, I guess they don’t

Ich Bin Tatsächlich Ein Haus                         Worin                         Ich Einen Platz Machen Kann

5. All The Screamers

Screaming, endless screaming, uninterrupted screaming,     just for the sake of emptying yourself of the pain

A germ of rage lives in you

If you would not work in the world of emotions     you would not have any deceptions

6. MupPet Sounds

Memories     Take care of     The fear of the past: nostalgia     Take care of     Themselves

7. We Don’t Go Too Far     That is what fear does—     it establishes the distance between the immediate and the eternal.

I know it and I am taking care of it.

8. Tweety Takes A Holiday

Das Bett umgestürzt.

In the morning as you wake up,     you come out of a bumpy     night and are on the other side     to write one’s sleep

9. Look What You’ve Done

it is going to be too late

Mach Leere, Leere     Ich Will Eine Leere Sein

guilt—the boots of the dead
