Milwaukee Art Museum


The Infinity Room

On a chilly day, dry your socks on the radiator...

Snow Patrol - Crack the Shutters

You cool your bedwarm hands down
On the broken radiator

When you lay them freezing on me

I mumble can you wake me later
But I don't really want you to stop

And you know it so it doesn't stop you

You run your hands from my neck

To my chest


Crack the shutters open wide

I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays

Tangle around your face and body

I could sit here for hours

Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you

Just as much as I want you


Its been minutes Its been days,

I remember all I will remember
Happy lost in your hair
And the cold side of the pillow

Your hills and valleys

Are mapped by my intrepid fingers

And in a naked slumber I dream all this again

And so it begins.....


And so it begins on this cold January.
The quest to accomplish simple yet extraordinary things.
And the countdown begins.
1001 days to go...
