| Home postcard series - Anna Couani - Carol Archer |
there are plenty of objects around
that help writing
soothing in their intensity
the print of the postcard
of the drawing on the mantelpiece
those kind of echoes
cassette tapes
the home-made ones
flickers of previous attempts
the VHS tapes
fortunately already buried
in some drawer
the anxiety of superseded technology
piled up in cupboards
hidden under the beds
things you forget to look at
a birthday painting
actually nice as a painting
the pin-board with family photos
all the next of kin
and grandparent group
only my grandmother is laughing
her sisters are smiling
my brothers lost in conversation
my brothers lost in conversation
beautiful and fantastic postcard series, too
