Maximization
Then I finally found
one and she charged it and we rushed out to her car, always a symbol of
possibility–especially when it belongs to a woman (even if she's a
policewoman–just so long as it's not her police car).
Following his reading at the
Guthrie in Minneapolis in 1981, Isaac Bashevis Singer called on a young woman
seated towards the back waving by now her hand. She said, "What if each
time you sit down over paper, you don't dare pick up the pen because you're
afraid of what's inside of you, of what might come out?"
(Mill, Popper, Keynes and
Co.–from what morgue did these guys pinch their human mock-ups? The
undisturbed truth is that some people, confronted by the choice of pleasure or
pain, incarceration or freedom, will pick incarceration & pain each time.
The brain is a gland of the stomach.)
Singer replied, "Write
it down, write it down–and make us all afraid."
Back at her place she
leavened my mood and then my manhood by removing first her frown and then
her clothes to stand before me, a very naked policewoman.
"You're shivering," she
said.
