FOOTFALLS ENCORE
+in honor of the 110th anniversary
of the birth
of Samuel Beckett
13 April 1906+
“The sun shone, having no alternative, on the nothing new.”
(1st line of his 1st novel, Murphy, entered in 1st of Murphy
manuscript notebooks 5/9/1935)
when every shoe hurts
no shoe fits like a glove
right foot left foot right foot left foot
become painful acts of love
just do one foot at a time
like all the other times
right foot first every time
left foot second every time
until the last footfall-
left or right as it may befall
