Panning for gold (and red, green and blues) near an abandoned monastery in France. An optical oasis. A grace period. Bright whispers of flesh and shimmering, seeking the moisture in everything. Alternating currents of movements crossing in fluid time. Listen. Look. A collage without edges. What would you call the daytime equivalent of a nocturne set in opal bathing in crystal clear sunlight? Or seasons that changes in midsentence? (M.M.)
