Approbations 565 —after Trygve Seim’s Between Between stare                          stare blank opac­ity resem­bles much of the bro­ken sem­blances cul­ture con­tains, intan­gi­ble mores focused finite and inex­plic­a­bly dis­tant from con­sis­tent virtues of ital­i­cized beau monde.     Approbations 566 —after Marc Johnson’s Since you Asked       My silence recalls bland-​​tongue archi­tec­ture, achro­matic logic con­tain­ing prayer­ful condi­ments, muti­lated con­nec­tion.  Your ask­ing con­tains metaphoric trails, my stand­ing still of an oaks’ neigh­bor­hood of size, style—   rean­a­lyzes your truth of com­mit­ted under­stand­ing.
