first stone or this erosion of the dismissal
for she cheats all lost time by playing
opposite
silently on the outskirts of town
without context (swallowing but concise)
so she says: that’s senseless
or irony of the after-effect the abolished
without history and mother tongue in hospital
convulsively white this body speaks
perhaps to amuse herself underground
but at heart charged without restraint
she start over from the bottom of the page
filled with the unleashed scents that undress her:
flying
drying up or fictive the liar opens
her fist this abduction all confined by the masculine
spread out
her withdraw – it depends – at what price
and the beyond amends her history
you get wet and dry up in pleasant parallels
drifting when the net is lifted
or concealed down to your feet you put on the brakes
and yet this pretext intervenes with your hand as process
a gripping sift of the inside or a return to self
this morning shifting history with a silent e

JUNE THE FEVER
from Lovhers
tr. Barbara Godard
i read the text of your project. i am writing you now from a sidewalk café on St. Denis where i have been sitting for an hour. it is a fine day and all about there is an air of reality. this café is called La Cour, it has a little yellow fence.
i don’t know why, but rather than reading what you have written, i’d like to imagine it. i picture you obsessively in the midst of writing excessively as if nothing could stop you – so, you never worry about anything. when you quote, however, you must stop, it seems to me. for example, when you point out what Y observes: the relationship of thought to language is not a thing but a process, a continuous movement from thought to word and from word to thought, what happens in your eye?
i go at your project in pieces because literally it burns me. each fragment becomes my ‘integral’ of you, the total work in the sense of an equivalence, of a shared reading facing the certainties i sometimes push away with tears, with forgetting or again with writing so as never to forget even if it is never entirely a question of memory: ‘a convenient fiction’ to quote Murray whom you quote yourself.
reading the text of your project, i become aware of the extent to which our fictions intersect: looking in our respective circles for the statement of the theory and the theory of play which will put into motion the very emotion of motion.
the waitress just brought me another beer. of course, that doesn’t interest you. however, in your text you write and oriented toward action in everyday life. i am obstinately looking for traces of everyday life in your work. nothing. everything is in the beyond. entirely real however in each of your gestures/ totally abstract. sometimes i even pronounce ‘an abstraction’ in your presence. you know however about my fever for everyday life and reality. my desire for words, my appetite for what allows me to imagine the real.
here i am trying to write by exploring all the mechanisms that serve to distract this i (permanent and unexplored) for you have clearly seen in your text of the project that nothing is written about identity without this motivation-mobile as is said about meaning on the look out or about meaning upended, turned back on itself. in reading you i am constantly seeking to displace myself in СКАЧАТЬ
