This 'Remberance' page states a compact poetics: love is a concept, hate is a wish, art grows in increments, and glory is not a spread.
The cleaned transcript restores the argument's plainness. It is a small manifesto about truth, scale, dress, art, and measured making.
'Remberance' reads as a compact ars poetica: 'Start from the top / You know exactly / When you are told / Something that is true.' It then defines its terms -- 'Love is a concept / Mate is a wish' -- and insists art has no shortcut: 'Now matter how big art gets / It is always in increments.' The close turns toward decorum and women 'dressed welll,' the source spellings ('Remberance,' 'welll') kept intact.
