out of the cool

I sit & drink & smoke. Out Of The Cool is on the tube,
by The Gil Evans Orchestra.
The coffee Pinotage is a South African wine, a red wine bottled near the Western Cape.

Der Mann Ohne Eigenschaften is my favourite island book, someone told me.
To get to my favourite island book I first need to know more on the island, I said.
My favourite book is the island.

On that island I would have a library as complete as anything Perec wrote. In addition
anything he didn't.
I would turn to the shadow of a stone and read the unread.
