for Ilya Kabakov
installation in which van goghs stars over the cafe of night appear
to be made of Christmas tinsel
installation where the angels hold their breath underwater
the water rippling through a magic lantern projected toward a sistine
ceiling
installation of the red leaves whirling up
installation of a snowy summit as viewed from the baseboards
the weathervane installations where angels fly off in all directions
forgetting the message which various personages make up
the dovecote installation and paper hearts
the installation of the end of all things intercepted by
the music stands
the installation where the music stands fight to the death
in a poppy red light
the installation of the roof of Heaven and the time lapsed studio
like a time lapsed blossom presented to Emilia with a flourish
installation in which no angels are sighted, but one: the angel of
the teakettle with a slight smile, the samover rolled over on its side
the installation called a prelude to night which is like a ballet
or parts of one, or a Bach partita
seascape of Long Island
the album of Dostoyevsky's final postcard home
Alyosha flying into the son
a flourish of fairytale trumpets from Madrid
