Memory Tables
Three picnic tables have been modified to be slanted. The text is written on top.
Table 1
IT IS, FIRST OF ALL, A PLACE WHICH TOUCHES, FOR EXAMPLE, THE OUTSIDE OF THE FACE. IT IS A WORLD OF THINGS, OF BIRDS, OF SCATTERINGS FROM ABROAD. IT IS ALL BRIGHTNESS AND SPIRITS AND WIND, THE CURVING PATH OF.
Table 2
TO DREAM OF THIS PLACE MIGHT LEAD TO POLITICS, TO SPEAKING WITH A PECULIAR ABANDON. THE WORDS, LIKE THE NIGHT ITSELF, AND AFTER THE MANNER OF ALL NIGHTS, KEEP NEGLECTED LOVE WITHIN THEIR CHARGE. TO THESE WORDS, AND TO THIS PLACE, COME KINDS OF MAGIC. AND A WIND ONE TRIES TO FIT.
Table 3
THE WAY THIS PLACE FILLS THE SPACE AND SOURCE OF ALL NAME. THE WAY THE RECOLLECTIONS OF SUCH A PLACE SETTLE INTO DETAILS UNCOMMONLY PAINTED WITH COLOURS. THE WAY THE LIGHT MINDS US. THE WAY THE GEOGRAPHICAL HAPPENS, THAT'S WHAT.
