When the Velcro fastened hinge is opened on this circular book, four accordion folded strips are exposed. Each of these strips contains a hand-written text that follows from the prompt of the title. This list of words and phrases ("stones," "tax forms," "big ideas," "smoke," "hard rain") was written in graphite and then in pen and ink. Cover image is a photocopy detail of a larger drawing.
