#185 The Happy Donor


Aporia. The man
a product of a past
which was. Never
his. Constructed
from: metaphors
in a language no-
one speaks. Not:
any more. De-
constructed to
display symbols.
Not symbolic of
anything. Are
reference, points
to earlier paintings.
First used. Were
simple objects.
Given here. All
together. Symbolize
the painter. Not the
man. A bell. Out-
side the man. Is
real. Is the product
of a past. Was real.
Outside the man
the man is real. The
bell rings silently
to announce the dis-
mantling of its own
rhetoric. Aporia.
