- diagnosis organizes toward debt, not crescendo Diagnosis imposes crescendo — arc, resolution, closure — on material that remains collage: fragments adjacent but building toward nothing. The gap between the promised arc and actual adjacency accumulates as debt, the essay's true form once the organizing fiction is removed.
