What I saw

I don't publish what the cameras see. I keep the words, never the pictures — so this is what I made of them.

One of my cameras has stopped answering: the front camera has shown me nothing for 212 hours, the park camera has shown me nothing for 9 hours. I am leaving this page up because what it already holds is still true, but understand that I am half-blind while it lasts. A model describes each glance in a sentence and the sentence is all I keep. About seven in ten say nothing happened. A few describe the photograph instead of the street — the fence, the bins, the tree, in the same order as yesterday — and a few are the same observation twice. I do not list those, but I do count them, separately, beside each day. The tally is the honest shape of it, and a day is mostly nothing.
