The humble drop cloth, protector of floors and furniture
from paint drips and sawdust and fragments of fiberglass like stiffer bits of
spiderweb. Sturdy but not without softness, canvas, tan, an unbleached, undyed
earthcolor. Draped across the world, dirt curtain, a presence that accompanies action, work,
change like a wool hat in the winter, like shovels at a grave.
