THEY and Hermetic shadows

[R. Fiero]

THEY are not us but what we perceive of THEM is the shadow of 
us -- the unintegrated unacknowledged and denied shadow of ourselves.

Thanks to jbor for noticing shadows but there are two sets of 
shadows in the paragraph on page 304.  There is the shade in 
which Zoyd and two marshalls (or dick and two balls or Jesus 
and two thieves or whatever) stand and the padded shadows that 
Frenesi's head is guided into being reminiscent of fellatio.

>Ron, or Zoyd and the two marshals, are "unobserved in the 
>afternoon shade": it's just another quibbling sideshow. Brock 
>wants to humiliate Zoyd and demonstrate his "custody" of 
>Frenesi, and her willing subservience to him. Frenesi, for her 
>part, is aloof and inscrutable, seemingly quite happy to be 
>escorted away by Brock, and quite happy also with the deal 
>which has been made and which will prevent her from ever being

>control of herself and the situation than we've seen 
>previously, ever since she met up with Brock back in the days of 24fps in fact.
