WILD(ER)NESS STANDS FOR THIS VERY IRREDUCIBILITY OF DESIRE. THE ELIMINATION OF THE NON-HUMAN INVOKES THE ELIMINATION OF THE HUMAN; CULTURE CAN ONLY BE DEFINED IN RELATION TO WHAT IT IS NOT...
GREEN IS A HERALDIC COLOR BECAUSE "WATER, GREENERY & A BEAUTIFUL FACE" ARE ONTOLOGICALLY PRIVILRDGED IN EXPERIENCE - AND ARE IN FACT THE BASIS OF THE ESOTERIC REJECTION OF SAMENESS & SEPARATION - THE DIVINE AS DIFFERENCE, IMMANENT AND IMMEDIATE - NOT ONLY IN "NATURE" BUT EVEN IN THE GARDEN OR CITY AS SPONTANEOUS ORGANIC CRYSTALLIZATION OF LIFE'S DESIRE FOR ITSELF. PERHAPS ALL"REAL" WILDERNESS HAS BEEN DISAPPEARED INTO A CARTOMANTIC MANAGEMENT OF DESIRES... BUT IF SO, THEN ITS SPECTRE HOUNTS THAT WORLD.
IT CAN BE CALLED BACK; IT CAN BE RESTORED.
