5/4

the reflection notes and diary notes through May of last year in front of me — question on organization — possibility (already thought of) for a series of numbers to indicate dates — possibility of having several to indicate section worked on over a period of time — perhaps reduce all this to an explanation of the dating system so far and then do away with it
the bliss of timelessness — but why not keep them — these questions spiral through the book — twining — vining
vines on a house side — a series of slides I did last year
vines crushing a tree — jungle vines — grape vines
a passage for the outward (toward the beginning movement)
a preface note as to when everything was redone or revised — as I am doing now
the sections written in Feb and Mar 86 — the notes written between then and now — the overall rewrite that I am starting now which will integrate diary notes from the last year into the Reflections text

5/6

hyperpersonal criticism — what personal
a totally individualized reading based on other readings and knowledge etc
a project that requires personal encyclopedia and dictionary etc
a systematic application of my knowledge to a text — possibly pull essay and poetry material together with a note indicating the original position in the sequence of notes

5/7

fade out portions of words as a sort of punctuation — caesura
