berlin is _______.
Seu Jorge, "Tive Razao", CRU
Again--words are audible; their meanings are silent. So the meanings are perceived by the mind at the same time the sensible qualities are. Sorting. So the meanings are perceived by the mind while the ear remembers. As then poems' lines are perceived as units, while the sense (a dance) stops or continues as it does. The ear remembers to stop while the mind sees to go on.
--"The Slate Notebook", Gerald Burns, 1979
