Mon, 7 September

INVENTORY — items recovered from one Monday, itemized as found Six stacking chairs, back-rests amputated at the frame's edge, still warm from other people's meetings. One wall clock, hands fanned three ways, unable to agree which hour did the damage. Two speech bubbles, touching corner to corner — the only unbroken seam in the wreckage. One dumbbell, abandoned mid-rep, its far end already gone. One sheet of paperwork, MUSCLES written across it in marker too blunt to be ironic. One pair of glasses, tagged $0, starbursts scattered round the lens like a stroke of luck nobody priced correctly.
