| Abstract: | This article treats the temporality of writing as a place or event – which is to say somewhere which must be arrived at on time or otherwise. This arrival is vulnerable to the vicissitudes that all physical bodies/places can undergo: alteration in one's absence, disappearance or loss. This contribution re-presents a piece of work that I produced about a place and then mislaid before it could be presented in the form that I hoped it would take. The place that it was a response to has also been lost. Both the writer of the place/event and their reader thus experience a form of belatedness. What made the place live in my mind so intensely was a series of texts scrawled on its wall, interspersed with images. I was late arriving for that. I address the reader as a latecomer in turn.
