Lesson XXI —

Our vocation was to create institutions and books, and we murmured like an echo resounding in the vaulted room:

for my volition to be volition,

no other can exist,

shadow without measure,

grandeur and shadow. She and I, through the open

window, we began to imagine the barren king in the wake of the river. We immersed ourselves in the imaginalia mundi, and left our life there to go on living. We wrote while he spoke, not what he said, but the echo his words made; we wrote, by chance, on notepaper erratic world, lost continent; achieved by will, cunning, or a balanced budget. Achieved by will and cunning, liberation from the yoke.

We raised our voices in our writing: Its power was a representation of other powers over it, a capacity for creation sustained by a coup of power, the power wasn’t its power, it depended on a powerlessness that wasn’t its own.
