Freewrite

Sense of Place:
Uncanny. Familiar. Foreign. Strange. Topography. A map. Maps. Mapping of. Transit. Transition. Origins. Secret origins. Lost in Translation. Imperialism. Colonialism. Post-colonialism. What comes after. Can we get a prologue?

A marker. Grave. Bargaining.

Epigraph. Epitaphs. Epigraphs and Epitaphs.

Epilogue.

How do you send your regards? What is it? It's not physical. And it's not an apology. Because I'm not there. I'm here. How do you send your regards?


Here.
Hereafter.

Belonging. B-movie. B-star. B not A. Not important.
Alonging. Along-ing. I'm done with alphabets. Alpha. Beta. Omega. End.

Longing.

...
-ing isn't very long.

I don't long.

I don't like to long.

Long.

Long-long. That sounds familiar.

Familiar. Family. Home.
是什麼呢?

本人根本不知道。

Home and place is and isn't the same thing. It's both to me.

It's Chinese to me. It's exactly this:

Exactly the way I look at these places. Places are Chinese to me. I don't know it but I recognize it.

I'll give you my regards then.
