Dream Poem 64: 1260° stoneware At college I go down to the basement to the pottery room B64. Lots of people are busy making ceramics This is my room My ceramics room. I have a long conversation about which temperatures and I’m insisting “ I want it at 1260° stoneware“ the others don’t understand what this means or what it does to the ceramics. It means that the pot will become stoneware, like a stone It will be very strong, impermeable to water Almost unbreakable. I have a sculpted head I want to fire. A difficult girl with blue hair and a full sleeve tattoo is playing the guitar. I have to persuade her to do something, to do some work.
