This is a clear glass jar lying on its side. Inside, it’s packed with crumpled paper, burnt matchbook pieces, and cigarette ashes. The lid has handwritten words: *"poem V ‘shake well before reading!’"* and *"tomas schmit 63."* The jar looks like it’s holding scraps of old letters or typewritten pages. The mix of burned and unburned bits makes it feel messy but intentional. If this style intrigues you, check out Tomas Schmit.
