July 4th is a day to celebrate the break of the American nation from monarchy; the beginning of an "empire of Liberty." By coincidence, my reading time lately was an immersion in Latin American fiction. My June 25 blog has a piece about the device of the run-on sentence in two excellent books. Most of us were schooled to banish run-on sentences from our narratives, I can't write one without a feeling of extreme transgression, so instead I like to extend sentences sometimes as if surfing a long, beautiful wave, a thing I have never done, but one can always imagine the daring and musculature others were blessed with.
