I.102
obsessed with actors
and actresses at uncle's,
or were they?
Wednesday, February 18, 2009
I.101
chocolate cream,
rice à l'Impératrice--
which play to choose?
Tuesday, February 17, 2009
I.100
aficionado
of the theatre,
having not been there
Monday, February 16, 2009
I.99
a now-empty room,
a suggestive cool odour--
my uncle's quarrel
Sunday, February 15, 2009
I.98
cave of Françoise
overflowing with produce--
temple of Venus
Saturday, February 14, 2009
I.97
a careful meal,
encompassing Françoise' pride--
seasonal rhythms
Friday, February 13, 2009
I.96
Eulalie delayed,
rapture turns to torture--
Françoise tries her best
Thursday, February 12, 2009
I.95
watching the people,
inferior and absent--
Eulalie's finesse
Wednesday, February 11, 2009
I.94
either "too ill",
or "not nearly ill enough"--
cause for banishment
Tuesday, February 10, 2009
I.93
unsuccessful trip,
returning home sans gossip--
Eulalie will know
Monday, February 09, 2009
I.92
too good for his job,
pattern of a gentleman--
Legrandin
Sunday, February 08, 2009
I.91
feeling history pass
I stand, stare, soak in--
a new town
Saturday, February 07, 2009
I.90
though wandering,
eyes always return to church--
dominating
Friday, February 06, 2009
I.89
the steeple
centering the map--
crowning façades
Thursday, February 05, 2009
I.88
timing a kiss
by the sun on fresh slates--
Mamma to market
Wednesday, February 04, 2009
I.87
birds in the turrets
but an air of distinction--
a quaint old face
Tuesday, February 03, 2009
I.86
Saint-Hilaire's steeple
piercing a misty morning--
longest Sunday walk
Monday, February 02, 2009
I.85
church and homes and shops--
contiguous buildings,
split by flowers
Sunday, February 01, 2009
I.84
devoid of beauty
Combray's apse a prison wall--
but, still, The Church!
