Through a blowing, gauzy window curtain

"When he peers out his apartment window through a blowing, gauzy window curtain, he sees the diminutive hit-man who had followed him earlier in the evening eyeing his apartment from across the street under a streetlamp. Brigid comes up to him and gushes: You are a god-send. Spade: Oh, now don't overdo it. Treasure-hunting Cairo joins them there, and notifies Spade of a "Sam" who is watching the apartment."

Just passing by, Sam Renseiw managed to capture a short , yet central blurry scene, giving rise to Maltese Falcon flash-backs. View the unfolding by clicking here or on the links above. (patafilm # 420, 03'08'', 13.3 MB, Quicktime/Mov - Flash version at blip.tv)

Metaphysics of the City

" But up in the day you, of course, are dancing over the asphalt with the soles of your feet on fire, and you have silk against your navel’s white eye and a new coat in the sunshine. And up in the light somewhere I, of course, stand and watch how the cigarette’s blue soul flutters like a chaste angel through the shopping window frames into the egg toward eternal life."
