Next house (text)

Project commentary. The craftsman history series. Part six. Umbrella (text fragment):

“Strolling down the street

the umbrella on wheels

follows me

the wheels are odd –

but what can one do,

a pair would have been enough,

but they lived together as four

it would be a shame

to separate them,

so we just stroll,

I,

the wheels

and the umbrella.”
