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!
