Time
“At 2 p.m. in the Afternoon”
trans. Sarah Riggs
a selection …
writing comes from a dialogue
with time: it’s made
of a mirror in which thought
is stripped and no longer knows
itself
The abstraction of thought (through dialogue and time) is caught in concrete action of stripping before a mirror. And the moment receives its commentary later on in the sequence:
philosophy is a non-knowledge
thought takes pleasure in
measuring its borders
And so for day 2931
