[buildings constantly move, doors can be windows, windows can be doors,
stairs to Pilate are climbed annually on knees, walls may soon all talk,
floors will mostly remain flat, ceilings with sprinklers are virtual skies
that harbor emergency rain, roofs probably more than anything manifest
architecture's shape, lights, camera, Africa, machines to create
architecture with, furniture and painting as one, utilities that never fail
(sic), plants, of course, grass gets high, sidewalk, siderun, sidecrawl,
sidesit, sideroll-over, driveway complete with Jeep, garage sale as

which sometimes gets put in digital museums.
Are the large homes and all their contents of today something like
subliminal evocations of museums? "A man's home is his castle." And just
look at how many actual castles and palaces are now actual museums.
"I want a McMuseum, hypersized."
Take a moment or two to count the 'collections' presently in your home.
