Crane & Man
A performance.
(him) The crane and the man aim towards each other through time. A dwindling, a shrinking of options, a decay in millions of decisions. Does the organism decide? Or does the environment decree? What brought you and I into this room? I knock and you greet me, you are never surprised. We do this every day, we walk together to the field you look at me, I look up at you at the height of your bounce.
My pants are too tight for this. Wait, let me take off my sweater.
