I am not sure how I see fragments -- seeing as how, today, one is inclined
to con-figure a whole from the assorted segments, strata, and pieces...  I
am not sure if I see fragments as different from segments, strata, and
pieces...  Although, the whole may not warrant lamentations (precisely
because it is imprecise, precisely because beyond describing it as the
veridical it is indescribable -- a subject of speculation [...poetry or
