Well grubbed

‘Everywhere a hole moves, a surface is invented.’

The war between burrowingness & not- continues.

‘There are also hells beneath hells. Some communicate with others by transits.’

Yes, those transits. The caverns & frozen seas & so on (all the vasty Stygiana) are their collaborators, but/& it’s the powers of which they are adjunct that concern us. Tunnels; connections; interteloses. Veins to be operated. The passageways that end in holes. 

A militant hesitation? Don’t avoid but go to war by staying put in these shunts of void. Their use-value lies in their being-hurried-through-ness. They don’t want to be dwelt in. 

‘Tunnelling is something that should be talked about without panicking.’

Keep calm, &c.

‘A principal rule for writers, and especially those who want to describe their own sensations, is not to believe that their doing so indicates they possess a special disposition of nature in this respect. Others can perhaps do it just as well as you can. Only they do not make a business of it, because it seems to them silly to publicize such things.’
