"tba" opens with a hesitation that’s also an overture: to be announced. It embodies postponement and possibility. It gives permission for surprise. "lolita cheng" collapses cultural registers into two names—one highly loaded with literary and ethical baggage; the other resonant with diasporic specificity. Pairing them forces a reader to reconcile histories they might otherwise keep separate. "set" introduces staging—a curated arrangement, a performance, a kit. "07 26" nails a date but not a year; it’s both specific and suspended in time.
