Literature's always a good card to play. When in doubt, win the trick. A collapse of intersections traces the path etched in copper intaglio. A small shrine freezing behind an unused barn. Pedestal, stupa, cracks in stone glint with ice intrusions.
Grandfather clock crowns narrow stairs.
Dank house in sequestered light. Avocados and oranges not allowed across the border. Wires triggered by rectangular holes in a revolving iron disk. Chordal music spills from antique case. In response, I devise my own deck of cards.
