It makes me tired to follow it. I will take a nap, I guess. I don't know why I should write this. I don't want to. I don't feel able. IT MAKES ME TIRED TO FOLLOW IT I WILL TAKE A NAP I GUESS I DON'T KNOW WHY I SHOULD WRITE THIS I DON'T WANT TO I DON'T FEEL ABLE
anything else that I ever heard of. It is repeated, of course, by the breadths, but not otherwise. Looked at in one way each breadth stands alone, the bloated curves and flourishes—a kind of “debased Romanesque” with delirium tremens—go waddling up and down in isolated columns of fatuity. But, on the other hand, they connect diagonally, and the sprawling outlines run off in great slanting waves of optic horror, like a lot of wallowing seaweeds in full chase. The whole thing goes horizontally, too, at least it seems so, and I exhaust myself in trying to distinguish the order of its going in that direction. They have used a horizontal breadth for a frieze, and that adds wonderfully to the confusion. There is one end of the room where it is almost intact, and there, when the cross-lights fade and the low sun shines directly upon it, I can almost fancy radiation after all,—the interminable grotesques seem to form around a common centre and rush off in headlong plunges of equal distraction. N OR REPETITION OR SYMMETRY OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT I EVER HEARD OF IT IS REPEATED OF COURSE BY THE BREATHS BUT NOT OTHERWISE LOOKED AT IN ONE WAY EACH BREATH STANDS ALONE THE BLOATED CURVES AND FLOURISHES A KIND OF DEBASED ROMANESQUE WITH DELIRIUM TREMENS GO WADDLING UP AND DOWN IN ISOLATED COLUMNS OF FATUITY BUT ON THE OTHER HAND THEY CONNECT DIAGONALLY AND THE SPRAWLING OUTLINES RUN OFF IN GREAT SLANTING WAVES OF OPTIC HORROR LIKE A LOT OF WALLOWING SEAWEEDS IN FULL CHASE THE WHOLE THING GOES HORIZONTALLY TOO AT LEAST IT SEEMS SO AND I EXHAUST MYSELF IN TRYING DISTINGUISH THE ORDER OF ITS GOING IN THAT DIRECTION THEY HAVE USED A HORIZONTAL BREADTH FOR A FRIEZE AND THAT ADDS WONDERFULLY TO THE CONFUSION THERE IS ONE END OF THE ROOM WHERE IT IS ALMOST INTACT AND THERE WHEN THE CROSS LIGHTS FADE AND THE LOW SUN SHINES DIRECTLY UPON IT I CAN ALMOST FANCY RADIATION AFTER ALL THE INTERMINABLE GROTESQUE SEEM TO FORM AROUND A COMMON CENTRE AND RUSH OFF IN HEADLONG PLUNGES OF EQUAL DISTRACTION
