Analect 2.386x



14 November 2008. Attentive autumn sun. Young Paul--the neighbor's son, his short pants and school satchel, miniature confident stride. Spotting me up the driveway: "Is your name morning...?" An original question. Asopposed to Santa Barbara college girl, seeking radio words to describe a Santa Ana fire: "It was like super super smokey..."

Or maybe all speech...

Theatricality and sincerity. Anthony's note: A Dylan poseur on a London stage...

And yet Gauguin, his ageless young women, side by side, breast to breast, their shoulders melding... The musical figures in Titian's Fete Champetre--each one turned to the other's light...

Renoir: "Wait for me, Gabrielle..."
