Aristotle on the subject/object relation.
“Let,
let the sky color my eyes / Fill, fill the space between my ears /
Creep, creep through the dead space of my lungs / Breathe,
breathe its softness on my tongue”
Young
Wonder, Tumbling Backwards
“Moreover,
that which sees is in a way colored; for each sense organ is receptive of the
object of perception without its matter.”
The
Philosopher, De anima, III, 2
