experience and language as reciprocal … recognizingto a matter of degree /of unfast night/

a matter and a transparency, slowly roiling … not /only/ language in the service of experience, experience and discourse timidly asleep together–an alchemy of experience into language, act of descriptive translation … / … it sweeps itself unawares into a discourse of the clearly immortal even if unfamiliar … rather an unfast, a slow detached feast pausing for stretches into the quick of perception and collapsing the hierarchy of tenses … rather what Robin Blaser*, writing of Jack Spicer, says “involves a reversal of language into experience, which is not a dialexis between ourselves or a discourse true only to itself, but a broken and reforming language which composes a ‘real’” - Camille Martin
