“I can speak of you now to anyone because I’ve stopped wanting anything like what I once wanted from you.”
Carol Guess, Tinderbox Lawn
“Swirled tight, trussed, manic, most trusted. You love hills, swells, waves of sand, waves of water. You love traffic on bridges that might split in two. You love stairs leading to stairs leading to ice cream stands. Shards of pottery as good as a map. You love fractured control towers and the very broken Alaskan Way Viaduct. You love squat corner stores and barber-pole signs. You love the idea of privacy in a city of windows, the idea of light in a city of shadows.”
Carol Guess, Tinderbox Lawn
“Nothing I feel happens
in real time.

— Carol Guess & Daniela Olszewska, from “Thinking Of You, I Google Your Secret,” Human-Ghost Hybrid Project(Black Lawrence Press, 2017)”

“There’s a shadow corresponding to a hill inside the girl. A breeze where she was last feared lost.”
