GR 'Streets'

[s~Z]

Since it has been a while since I've perused GR, I decided to re-read Part
4. Like STREETS, it begins with the sound of buzzing (kazoos this time),
after a brief airplane stunt-flight moves to gray skies for the War, heads
right into cross imagery, has a Thunderbolt, re-introduces the harmonica,
has Slothrop thinking of a way to get back, after a discussion of music and
enlightenment returns to crosses and crossroads and churches, has semen
dripping from a hanging cock onto the ground and creating capital gains,
(Crosses, swastikas, Zone-mandalas, how can they not speak to Slothrop?),
and the first section closes with Slothrop becoming a crossroad viewing a
stout rainbow cock driven out of pubic clouds into green wet valleyed Earth.
The more one reads, the more context and complexity and intertext
referentiality one finds.
