3V0701.01 [Mine…Peggy…Peggy’s…back]:clear use of a possessive, but one where syntactic structure is decidedly subordinate to the context; Peggy’s picture (12/24/79)

I bought some Polaroid film the other day and today had taken a
picture of Peggy sitting with me in my chair. I set it on the piano to
develop completely. when her image appeared, Peggy was fascinated by
the picture, kept pointing to it saying “Peggy…picture.”

Later in the day, I retrieved the picture to protect it from seizure
(I gave Peggy another which she fingered and mouthed.) Peggy returned
to the piano several times and implored me for its return
“Back?…Back?…Peggy?”

Eventually I gave in, replacing the picture. When she saw it, she was
elated. “Mine…Peggy….Peggy’s….back.” I consider this a clear use of a
possessive, but one where the “syntactic” structure is decidedly
subordinate to the context. (The dots represent Peggy’s typical
inter-word gap. This caesura is what I identify in my mind as “frame-
swapping-time” — with the word produced as a consequence of a new
frame in control.)
