Bed of Nails
May 1, 2008- June 30, 2008
Project Room: Online Exhibition
"A sleeping man wakes in the night
ready to sing hymns read psalms
read his own palms
all psalms are prayers
wrung out of desperate people
I'm not the first
to be nailed to this killing floor
my bed of nails is the luxury version
fashioned from wooden dowels.
Who invented the bed of nails?
Does the thumbscrew have a patent?
There remains something solid
holding me up, the backbone
and the backbone flute
the sound of that flute extracting a melody
a melody that becomes a remedy."
Max Blagg
