Will the light show me what is broken?
I did not get any pictures of the sunset per se, even though it was one of the low-fired kind that always look like scratchboard at this leafless time of year.
I keep returning to the sunset view from our kitchen, but it reminds me of the Hopper light I used to see all the time around Winter Hill as well as the colors of a lobster buoy.
There were grape leaves tangled up in the twigs swaying in the line of the telephone wires. The curious mauve smoke-color of the sky was not something I expected the camera to catch.
I understand this mirror exists in order to prevent collisions in the driveway of the business it belongs to, but it's such a good creator of abstract gleams.
The street full of maple leaves looked like the bank of a river by Greer Gilman.
I am just now catching up on the rest of Johnny Flynn and Robert Macfarlane's The Moon Also Rises (2023), whose initial singles I heard around this time last year. It may be even more archaeological and ritual than its predecessor, which I have to say I am really enjoying. I wish I could get the edition of Jacquetta Hawkes' A Land (1951) with Macfarlane's introduction as anything other than an e-book.

I also learned of it because of Cooper! I had been trying to pin down whether a likeness to her work in something by J. B. Priestley was lineage or apophenia and the existence of Hawkes makes it look like the former, which was of course reassuring to me, but also now I just want to read Hawkes.
(It had been staring me in the face since childhood, since The Grey King is dedicated "for J. B. and Jacquetta.")

Right, I'm taking that as direct influence, then, and will cite it as such, but excuse me?
