In a Small Hotel

The image shows a surreal illustration on a light purple background. A black rectangular shape with legs represents a person or furniture piece. Above it are simple line drawings of a lamp and framed pictures. Below, a white lacy skirt or undergarment is visible. The black rectangle has strips of yellow text visible, creating a blackout poetry effect. The overall composition suggests a hotel room or domestic scene with an abstract interpretation.

In a Small Hotel

In a small hotel,
a
dress
a
suit
you ask
my dress
She answers, “I will do it for you,?
the greatest, give
It
is exceedingly
honorable — to take it
