the freedom to be brief

length is also a response to a commercial pressure -- just an out-dated one (it doesn't pay to publish a one-sentence book)

when amy p. made this point at the final discussion, there was a visible recoil from the way she put it -- i responded by saying (something like) in an infinitely expandable medium where everything lasts as long as the oil lasts, there's room for a lot of other levels of response... also i said something abt kids frisking noisily on the surface while dark grey ageing sharks circle below them in the darkness

what i didn't say wz that the visible recoil is a manifest proof of the existence of other desires than amy's for the totality of a frenzied now: what's disliked abt her world and attitude will (has already) created a reactive community

i don't know which i'm in -- the anti-amyites seem a bit alex-in-nyc
