Is reading




Is reading a prison then? A book reading to a prison.A  prisoner of the book. Take any book like Situations by Jean-Paul Sartre , the one with the essay, an astonishing one , about Tintoretto. 

What about it? 

Well it's a  translation and the writing is  incredible. Tough, strong, polemical, swinging. Trenchant a fancy English word no one uses .


No one?

No one.  

And why ought they to? Ought be the superlative plus of any situation. A Y on the dawning of No  and N.




What then are you reading?

A book by so and so and so and so and so and so and so and so and so.


And what are they about?

It's a prison . Explanation is a prison. A trying thief waiting for a tugging god. A dog hung backwards off a two wheeled woman. Unlike  a waste of time, a man must find a manner, a way to read. A reading writing. A thing what's her name hoped to understand. She didn't . She's locked into her head. Age. Her head age. Like Jacky. Locked in a bock and a bourgeois come-down. What does it get called ? figur(ine)e of speech. Reading.


You just won't admit anything will you?

Admit? Admit? Admit what a scholarship? a night among bawdy buttocks reclining women nude in the off side blanket of death.


What sort of metaphor is this?

Who speaks of metaphor? I am speaking about desire. Not the metaphor, but the machine that makes them blink. Always trying to find a way to make them work.
