I couldn't say how Brown *connects** "labyrinth / dream / death / 
anal-birth," but he has very definite ideas about shit (anal-birth) that are 
"like Freud on acid."  Essentially he syas that shit is the original medium 
under the control (miraculously produced).  It becomes the focus 
(transferred toward the medium of money) of the repressed individual.
