\n(Aristotle emphasizes)
\na principal of association is helpful\u2014
\n“passing rapidly from one step to the next.
\nFor instance from milk to white,
\nfrom white to air,
\nfrom air to damp,
\nafter which one recollectes autumn supposing one is trying to recollect
\nthat season.”
\nOr supposing,
\nfair reader,
\nyou are trying to recollect not autumn but freedom,
\na principal of freedom
\nthe existed between two people, small and savage
\nas principals go\u2014but what are the rules for this?
\nAs he says,
\nfolly may come into fashion.
\nPass then rapidly
\nfrom one step to the next,
\nfor instance from nipple to hard,
\nfrom hard to hotel room,
\nfrom hotel room<\/p>\n
\nhis wife
\nwalking
\non the other side of the street and she did not see him, she was\u2014
\nso ingenious are the arrangements of the state of flux we call
\nour moral history are they not almost as neat as mathematical
\npropositions except written on water\u2014
\non her way to the courthouse
\nto file papers for divorce, a phrase like
\nhow you tasted between your legs.
\nAfter which by means of this wholly divine faculty, the
\n“memory of words and things,”
\none recollects
\nfreedom.
\nIs it I? cries the soul rushing up.
\nLittle soul, poor vague animal:
\nbeware this invention “always useful for learning and life”
\nas Aristotle say, Aristotle who
\nhad no husband,
\nrarely mentions beauty
\nand was likely to pass rapidly from wrist to slave when trying
\nto recollect wife.<\/p>\n
