I TRAP SERIES 1
SOME RULES FOR SEEING THE C-o(l/d)ours

A- Close your eyes. Half-close your eyes. Bury your eyes a hundred times.
B- Don’t die. And if you do bloody well die, be or not be or be a being colourless, odourless, I adore you being. Be a pain, be a colour, be a smell.
C- Hold back the leaves with one hand. Put a leaf in the pocket of your other trousers and never take it out, never move it from there.
D- Regard a mimosa night. Drown myself I you he now.
E- Stroll one afternoon by a Louise Bourgeois sculpture. Pass your finger over a door painted a thousand times. Rest your cheek on a broken window of a broken museum, another smell, another colour. A day in New York.
F- Cover both nostrils. Can’t breathe, can’t breathe, can’t breathe… Like this for five minutes.
G- Use second-hand clothes, second-hand cars, second-hand women. Your hands, your hands, use your hands to love, the hands clasped, drenched.
H- to Enter where the mirror has fogged itself. You are you and what is behind the mirror.
I- Eat some of the grass at what we call a sports event.
J- Leaf through books, close books, bind books, recall books, deny the books.
K- Wait for the night one summer and wait and watch and…
L- Spit, escape, piss, shit, fuck, cry, love, row, paint, dream, yearn…
M- See what happens if you pay no heed to a certain elementary incompatibility.
N- Collect things made of rubber, plastic, latex, unvarnished wood, nothing and ah! varnish wood, train up a creeper, curl to anyone.
O- Wait for things to be a hundred years old or wait a hundred years to have a thing. Or so.
P- Kiss.
Q- Open, look, close during five whole years a box of MANLEY matches. Wait five years to use a match from your box of MANLEY matches.
R- Go out into the street the first minute of the first day that it starts to rain.
S- Go into a building painted green. Go into a building painted blue. Go into any building painted any, let’s say, colloquial colour.
T- File, sand, lick, lunar, pleasure, plural, rub, polish, loose…
U- Put all your things in glass urns. Put a price on them. Be dead.
V- Be a performative, decorative, alternative artist. Be an intestinal pyromaniac.
W- Walk on the beach in winter.
X- The breeze on any night of your life. The breeze on any night of your life. The breeze. The breeze. The laugh.
Y- Be the first one Sunday.
Z-Be the last, put out the light. Breathe in.
