 Item
Identifier: CC-34969-36684
Scope and Contents

The drawing consists of the three lines of micrographic text. The first reads, "This message would come to you or be experienced in your absence by the tongue of his anger which you never confronted. But you, receiving more than time or money, looking over pasts like rooftops. Nurenberg. You said Dresden or that you dread them or you dread him." The second reads, "And this is as good as you can do? Halfway out then all the way in feels better during sex but I forget it has been so long. There are still half-burned candles where our trail ended." The third reads, "Like there would be time enough like there would always be time & we knew there never would be but we never wished to destroy the illusion of a future together." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
