2.4.17




When a student is ready a teacher appears
                                   so much jactitation(the twitching of a limb or muscle)
(he preferred jactittation ­­– the heaving of breasts)

when When a student is ready a teacher appears is said  when he embraced itthoroughly imagined it  he wondered where his teacher was   he had always been a student-of-sorts but those he would justify as teachershis last teachers were long ago  Mr Wappler a well-known Chicago Blackstone Group painter  he asked him if he would teach him how to paint  but after three weeks in midstroke he took the paintbrush out of his hand  Boy he said as a-matter-of-fact Youre no painter  still their ensuing relationshipan odd go-between between a nine year old boy and a 73 year old man taught him worldly things that resonated today  it was a breathtaking relationship   he didnt have a teacher again until high school Mr Benthal his mechanical arts drafting teacher  Benthal(as he preferred) told him that he was astonished by his unique ideas regarding architecturethat he was thoroughly excited captivated and enthralled My God Im more your student than your teacher  Benthal told him he wasnt familiar with anyone in the field who drew sliding exterior walls walls lowered like drawbridges room partitions curtains hung from overhead tracks to alter or arranged new rooms in an otherwise static structure  Benthal called his architecture Organic   

he confided in Benthal that he wishedcould only wish he could manipulate some elementelements something like DNA
to incite pliable perhaps living domiciles  homes  cells aggregating  in the shadeand like of a human body


it had been a long time



apparently he wasnt ready
