TMoP: Pattern

[Glenn Scheper]

I have read 8 chapters, and am off to the laundromat
in tan pants and a wife-beater, with my few garments.
In them is just one other white object, a washcloth.

I have Coetzee with me, and will review it or read on.
I decide to review, and look over the chapter names.

"The white suit", Chapter 4 is a symbolic benchmark.

When I was young, living back at home after the Army,
mom would often come home from Salvation army with an
armload of clothes for me to try on (and return the
rest--the clerk allowed her that). When she brought
home a shitload of used Chevron uniforms, all white,
they became my standard daily attire. I think I wore
them to UCLA, bicycling from Santa Monica, and to work
in our laundry, and as an injection molding mechanic.
They ended up filthy as greaserags.

3:4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; 
and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.

My mother took up home health care in her last years,
so she also wore white. In the last month of her life,
she would lie back in her recliner chair, with both
arms hanging up in the air, as if by reverse-gravity,
like the Orpheus mention in TMoP Ch 1. FWIW, she also
mentioned a feeling of spiderwebs all over her face.
And cigarettes are clothed in white, not like cigars.

There are 20 chapters. I'm looking for seven-tuples,
but see none. Maybe two tens? No, five sets of four.

Sardis is the fifth letter, and here is the fifth seal:

6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of 
them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, 
dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them;

This is discovery of autofellatio, Shakespeare's Hamlet.

Now recall my automobile engine description for Ez ch 1.
Coetzee later mentions the regularity of a piston-engine.
The fifth and the first are roughly in some same state,
and the sixth and the second, etc. Everything modulo 4.

My interpretations tended to be chiastic until lately,
but an engine has momentum. It cannot reflect at no. 4,
doubling right there. Rather it goes all the way to no. 8,
which in three bits overlays the absent null, zero, and
skipping what is naught, we have Sunday as eighth on top
of Sunday as the first day of the week that really IS,
and as zero if falls before the first day, overlaying
the seventh day that really is, Saturday. I'm confused.

ABC…CBA

Remember CMYK (but the printing order I think is Y last),
and Man/Heifer/Lion/Eagle and Abraham/Issac/Israel/Esau.

At the fourth seal opened, is Death on the pale horse.
I open the dryer early. Only the new red shirt is dry,
thinner material. I put it on. The washcloth is gray.


Now let's get these TMoP names straight: In Russian,
-ovich (patronymic) means the son of. So far I see:

 - Pavel Alexandrovich Isaev is the boy's name.

 - (Alexander) ... Isaev is the name of his father.
 Fyoder Mikhailovich Dostoevsky is using that name,
 but only sometimes, and haltingly, sur-reptiously.

 - Anna Sergeyevna is the landlady

 - Matryona is her daughter, by some dead printer.

Here we have one closed family unit: the tetrad:
two genders, and in two generations, but there are
dualities, in's and out's, upon this closed cycle.

Reading TMoP ch 1, I see that we must map it on that
zero-th state, of Ephesus, which will also be eighth.

It will be like the fourth seal: death, metamorphosis
by autofellatio, but right now it is just the mother
and a man-child, in and out of the womb, and suckling.
Yet there may be echoes of all other things in it.

Beginning, I begin in the next post, or so.

Yours truly,
