Blaise Cendrars (1881-1961), modernist poet
Filmy substances everywhere:
film of fog over headland
film of seaweed on rocks
film of bird poop on log
film of dampness on feet
film of ash on sand
film of marshmallow on skewer
film of thoughts on Mind
film of water on crow back
film of seaplane drone cast abroad
film of obligations, regrets, hopes, impatience
what lies beneath?
