A Red Hat Replaced

after Gertrude Stein


A lacking of light between black and white or a
shade tending toward an empty character
reflecting only a small fraction of incident
lightness between extremes, is so shockingly
hideous because there is no visible hue in it. But
the absence of a flush complexion is not
unavoidable as it is determined by prior
conditions and circumstances. Therefore, the
most important consideration is not a course of
reasoning aimed at demonstrating truth or
falsehood, for any exceeding limits conduct
themselves toward even without specification.
It is, then, to find an area defined by boundaries
that are greater in excellence than a position
regarded as belonging to someone or something
that is so great in extent like a given space in any
direction away from the inside.
