The first image I see when I wake up
     Kim Kardashian falling asleep
     in the water on ecstasy
     suspended by buoys
     Pills for sleeping while waking
     O god of the stagnant water
     I’m a spiritual kindergartener
     I confess
     I’ve learned to worship the lies
     you’ve loved the best
     My dewy other self in an
     abundant orange grove
     I wrote...
     What I meant was...
     I’m relaxing into my decay
     in chemical colors
     A toxic miasma glides
     up the coast
     masked finfoots and sooty albatross
     meadows unmurmuring
     Green marzipan raspberry jam
     garish insects glisten in my palm 
     Making afterlife notes for my ancestors
     I tear me to slivers
     then bring them back to life

-Zoe Brezsny

Sinkhole Project, Baltimore MD – Sinkhole Project is a curatorial exercise by Joe W. Speier which treats a fence in Baltimore, MD (and sometimes elsewhere) as a physical pintrest board for works of art.

U:L:O: is a curatorial program that invites three curators over a four week period to organize a show in one of the three spaces at Interstate Projects, Upper(U:), Lower(L:), and Outside(O:). 2019 participating curators include: Museum Gallery (New York), Calaboose (Montreal), Sinkhole Project (Baltimore).
