Animated gif from Bong Joon Ho’s 2003 film “Memories of Murder”. It is a close-up on the face of the main character, Detective Park Doo-man, played by Kang-ho Song, against a field of wheat. He is looking left and then turns to stare directly into the camera, making eye contact with the viewer.

Prose poem titled “It’s Like This”. Text: It’s Like This:

There is a keyhole in the back of your neck and sometimes someone, maybe it’s you, reaching behind in an act of astounding agility, your bones should ache after but they don’t, puts the key in. I don’t know what kind. A skeleton key, I guess, since this is an old story and this is an old room and you’re not the first person to live in it. Anyway, the key is turned and the light pours in rolling and singing. Normally you’d put a simile here, but it is like nothing else. It’s tidal and warm and you can’t look at it straight on. The rest of the time it’s dark in there and you are waiting for this. Waking and sleeping and working and going on with things. But really you’re waiting and the cool air whistles into the keyhole where the key is not.

G as a baby of 7 or 8 months. She wears a blue and white striped onesie and sits upright on a gravelly path, staring into the camera. Behind/next to her her mother is crouched. Only her hands and knee are in frame and an undone baby carrier hangs in her lap.
