As bulbous
clouds threaten to release agnatic bolts of rain, an alarm clock
signals a sudden change in the weather. Trees that blossomed last
week wonder whether they bloomed too soon. Bleary-eyed, stretching,
breathing into the void, just when one's world seems to be settled,
something rumbles in the belly.
| Ancient traditions,
frozen over countless generations, suddenly thaw. A taut bind
snaps. Sasquatch wakes. Hungry and disoriented, remembering
was figured as a "silva" or woods, and Aristotle
characterizes |
|
the use of topics as hunting for arguments where they
are to be found, just as one looks for animals in the woods.
Wasn't it Aristotle who said his keen nose sends him
to a high pasture,
a clearing where an animal's waiting. |
Mind is the
wilderness in which Sasquatch lives and works. Jabès had the Holocaust
and the notion of the Book, the Word that
is rarely damaged due to its position in the head. When damaged,
the occipital lobe may cause changes in sight and perception. When
one side of the occipital lobe is damaged, sight is lost in both
eyes even though only one side of the occipital lobe is damaged.
Lesions in the occipital lobe can cause particularly interesting
side effects. One of the strangest is God.
Great
art comes from great
suffering, though not
necessarily
by
the artist.
The work must render tropes
more hermetic than assumed.
