     brexit                                            |
             ­                                    visegrad group

both are parallel movements
   of kindred spirit -

    lay them horizontally
       calling the former (a) and the latter (b)
and you receive
   the algebraic definition
         that              a = b;

of course there's the difference in
                                       temperament,
as you'd expect -
                but let us count,

n. ireland   (slovakia)
       wales (czech republic)
  scotland (hungary)
           and england (poland)
...

p.s. notes, to return, post-pending:

heidegger's pondering V,
                   aphorisms 35 & 36...
     and the post-creative observation
concerning the germans,
   beginning with hölderlin (ö = œ) -
     i.e. how a poetic observation
concerning the germans within
the modern context of politics.

   )
         and to imagine, it was written in circa
late 1936...
                     given the current state
of affairs...
                the great thwarting toward
the paths of creativity...
           (this is not verbatim) -
where are the great sign of the thwarting?
  the clearest is in anxiety -
             in face of questioning -
  accompanied by a suspicion of all
   "anxiety": which translates itself
as the dreaful sign of impatience...
      i.e. avoiding the vocation toward
   translating an "anxiety"
           as the first stepping stone toward
a transition, akin to the first move
of a pawn on a chess board. (

and hasn't it come to this?
   the anxiousness of our modern youth,
for lack of a better word, i.e. youth -
                in accordance with some sort
of lack of a creative impetus -
         whereby anxiety can be seen as
an transitioning tool - to be creative,
is to constantly be anxious
-
              but to be creative, one has to treat
this anxiety as a flux -
                            hence heraclitus used
the river (if ever a metaphor were more
true) - rather than the sea -
        a man will always step into the same
sea, but in the same river?
                                           hardly;
it's hard to imagine that this observation
by someone coming out of **** germany
  in 1936... resonates as a "genuine" medical
condition in the anglophonic world...
         and that's to say, the superficiality
of certain alliances made -
   esp. that made by the act of creativity,
   and some mental disorder,
                         which is supposed to
be allied with an impetus to create -
         but can the other form of alliance
within the arts be rediscovered?
    i see one already, blooming -
take the invention of polyphony
                    by j. s. bach - and then translate
"polyphony" into literature?
   what do you get? well... the best example
           is w. burrough novel naked lunch,
and yes, the existentialist dittoing out a word
is a shortcut to a metaphor...
          but there's an essential component
allowing the two be comparable:
  namely? poly-   where as the former endears
a layering of sounds,
   the latter (known as the cut-up technique)
uses a venomous utility of layering
  by disorientation...
     with anyone who has an aversion to
the classical linear narrative, of say,
   a jane eyre novel... or has a.d.h.d. -
               they'll gollop the novel down like
      a turkey before christmas...
                    which then transitions into
painting, i.e. movements such as
  expressionism, post-impressionism -
etc.
