Re To The Wonder and Against the Day

[alice wellintown]

Wonder, Magic, Grace, and these are, as that Prairie (VL), when a
child, might say, "Trees" that tremble above and below, with the
sacred stuff that can not be divided, not even by a narrative about a
creator god that as He engenderes sets the night from the day. This is
a theme P never abandons. It is there in TSI, where the Sick Crew,
boyz who suffer from all manner of sociel diseases, a theme explored
parodically in V., where P has his fine finger in the pages of West
Side Story, but better examined with boys, younger boys who, as
parodic characters taken from the Swift-type novels and from Twain,
are launched in AGTD, so, for example, there on page 418, the
crew...read that top passage, there where teh Crew began to find
evidence of Trespass everywhere...

notice it is an invisible narrative...and the theme is Death. Yes,
that American Death is not Hamlet's, be Hamlet a sixteen years college
lad or a 20 years prince who does the dozens withe sexton, sixteen or
sexton....both/and, but a death of that for ever young American boy,
who wants to divide the night from his days, but must, know that the
neuropathy, the loss of sense, of day, can not be blocked by concrete
walls or anything Vibe might produce or sell, or make a deal for, but
must be given its day, then Grace is not against it.

Thanatopsis!
