Seeing Things Hidden
‘Unless it is just a game,
we look for what is hidden, anxious about what we might find- in the small
print, under the bed- or else driven by fantasies about what may be
concealed……. Our anxieties are fuelled by the play of imagination, our
fantasies by the numbering fear that there may be nothing hidden, that what we
know is all there is.’

excerpt of limb discussions
[It took a long time
for them to grow back and when they did they were slightly crooked and full of
holes. Bits of tissue and fluid, and slivers of my soul fall out when I walk now
and when I shake hands. It is worse when I run but luckily my friend made me
this suit of liquid latex for my birthday, which tends to hold most of it in
when I am dancing.]
