THE WET COLLECTION

"Handwritten notes line a drawer of eggs from a donated private collection. One note, written in a deliberate script in faded brown ink, reads: 'Collected under a clump of grass approximately 3 feet from a pasture road. A.S. Wilson, 1919.' This in a curving, fountain-pen script nobody has anymore. What now of the pasture road? Is it there still; is it a superhighway? The egg, so fragile, and its clump of grass remain after the man and the world he noted so carefully have vanished."
