[X.] II. Passer á côté de l’essentiel

[X.] II. Passer á côté de l’essentiel

The horse had antecedents, of which death on a pale horse was a remote and uncertain avatar. There was an archaic palfrey she couldn't place, instinct with fear, and some other very precise literary image of a rider hurrying to bury a treasure. This she waited blankly for, conjuring it, with the phrase “fleet waters of a drowning world”, with a kind of contrary after-image of her dream, a humped and trundling dark steed on a reach of black sand, not white, William Wordsworth's dreamed dromedary. –A.S. Byatt's The Virgin in the Garden (1978)

The long white marble slab was clean, washed by rain or by someone who'd come by fairly recently. Emanuele climbed on top of it. Nora was about to stop him, but I held her back: she would have to let him do it. He patted the color photograph of Mrs. A. and studied the one of Renato beside it uncertainly. "Ciao," he said.

[O] ne ear pressed against the stone for quite some time. –Anne Milano Appel's translation of Paolo Giordano's Il nero e l'argento (2014)

From the Wilton Diptych (1395)—At the millennium’s transit into the star fields of the Milky Way, with costume hired, and surcharged for late hours (1999), Pluto occults the florist shop, Nipped in the Bud, and hazards the ermine with a trinity of gp120 spinning faculties still growing, feeling still (II.320) on her street turning, the tenderest white spotted with black of Joyce Mansour’s

That becomes corrosion resistant at the welds—II. The Pool of Tears (1865), where she who has no light of her own at all, stands beyond the antisolar point of the rainbow, overlooking the guttation after fertilizer burn, of having fallen asleep on the bristling lawn, recovers the images of Martian cuboctahedral snow, excluding the volcanic column of Io, and then precipitation of Titan and Pluto shows its face in tears for Fury having tried the whole cause, secondary and tertiary reflections reversing their bands between 40.6 and 42 degrees applies

A domiciliary succeeding her input on the Chaise Longue Basculante (1928) of stitched cowhide and leveled on hooves—Vagrants of themselves find refuge in such a shoreline glass pylon, even in present-day innumeracy, at the solstice the seven times circling searching for Ausar, of their two elements stopping before a spider

Cordoned to a well—The small tortoiseshell is drinking the damp veil of The Blind Girl (1856)—Outside of the optical phenomenon set by the glass rods rendering Seneca the Younger’s virgulae (I.vii), forget-me-nots, or myosotis, on whose petals the butterfly's blind olfactory mitral cells sidestep the eye spots scored by disfiguring spider

To Rosamond Campion on the most-read-about radical excisions heatedly defended by the subjects themselves, The Invisible Worm (1972)—Wordsworth, because he was with his sister, Dorothy (15 April 1802), recesses the golden mean of daffodils in his mind—After contracting the vicar at Grasmere, those rewalking it thought more on six-pointed Narcissus as inapt for decorated gum paste or to be staked in floral foam—
Enfolded intelligence in Isaac Oliver’s saffron-dyed Rainbow Portrait (1600)—What does the increasingly static figure of Astraea sense with a brocade serpent biting realgar before its lain on her image, in the 42-acreage of house gardens of Hatfield House—Close by, once Queen’s Beech, with a node for face, after Magritte’s Alice au pays des merveilles (1946) and then the verges of Ernst’s Pour les Amis d'Alice (1957) striding through the gramineous and leguminous classes, a bactericidal copper nail matched to the vanishing
Horseshoes—Bird collectors in Rubiana, who had missed the visitation from a bird-of-paradise, which, for selective pressures, do not migrate—A critic (1957) of Joy Mansour

Alleged she could play her pitiless tune in many keys—Spider silk tensions; so often exceeding the 42 negative confessions, inverted in lives of Joyce Mansour’s Rapaces (1960),
Unvanishing, sea-soluble as molybdenum borne from the fault lines—Streamlining unindulged excess wrought on the urn of Dionysus and maenads at Golders Green
With Thomas Browne’s crown retrieved by the disruption of another grave (1840), the observer clarifying the misapplied foam of both wound and island with incongruous wood sear, the spume of cicadas

Apparently, there was a 2015 text with monotonous adult film stills selected by the husband-wife team (?) pennamed Augustine and Joséphine Rockebrune (Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, where Le Corbusier vacationed, and died in 1965) by Édition Monumental. The LC4 is a showstopper, but it does seem that the filming as a whole is so dully uniform and stereotypical, one's attention inevitably shifts to the furnishings. That and that thrown in, for a bit of class.

The title is from Charlotte Perriand's recollection of joining the firm of Le Corbusier (1927), in Une Vie de creation (1998), “‘We don’t embroider cushions here,’ he replied, and showed me the door.”

Ah, the siblings Rockebrune.*

1000 Chairs by Charlotte & Peter Fiell (1997) is showing its age, but when turning to Ernest Race's furniture I see a spirit of the age.

Millais's painting (1856) first struck me with its composition of ultraviolet purple and ciron yellow with a double rainbow (!) The girls challenge the onlooker to pity them because, in all this subliminity, the butterfly drinking on the sweaty linen, the veil of materiality is spectral, and there is a Creator caring for them there. This girl with a beautiful, unblemished face on the side of a road...

I awoke this morning at 5:35 after arguing with a team of landscapers over payment for removing dead trees, as they cut down a generational tree still living, and explicitly marked to remain. This was in the backyard of the youth, and I was an adult witness.

The gods of wood are idolatrous totems, but I conclude that the significance of this dream meant that something that takes generations to cultivate and promote sheltering microclimates can be irreparably destroyed by thoughtless people, including myself.
