DIAMONDS

DIAMONDS 1970 (United States)



                                   Sight
                          colorful, unusual
                     staring, seeing, knowing
         stranger, looking, complacent, different
                        wondering, changing
                           blank: memories
                                  blindness

                                      Dry
                               warm, nice
                   drying, sweating, climate
          hot, burnt, smoothness, dampness
                 spraying, drinking, washing
                                 cool, cold
                                     wet.
