 L O N G J O H N S I L V E R | Reading what I have just written, I now believe I stopped precipitously, so that my story seems to have been slightly distorted, ending, as it did, not abruptly but in a kind of artificial mist of the sort sprayed onto stages to allow for difficult set changes. Why did I stop? Did some instinct discern a shape, the artist in me intervening to stop traffic, as it were? A shape. Or fate, as the poets say, intuited in those few long ago hours— I must have thought so once. And yet I dislike the term which seems to me a crutch, a phase, the adolescence of the mind, perhaps— Still, it was a term I used myself, frequently to explain my failures. Fate, destiny, whose designs and warnings now seem to me simply local symmetries, metonymic baubles within immense confusion— Chaos was what I saw. My brush froze—I could not paint it. Darkness, silence: that was the feeling. — louise glück |
