see the art in me

almost breathing

"but truly i think it is like the original

not like a mere imitation"

rather, he rediscovered.

human

difference between life and death:

breath informs the living body,

an unsophisticated design that mattered

scared

suspicious of the visitor

i looked round desperately for somewhere to hide.

hopeless of course.

and then i heard a footstep

behind the door,

"i beg your pardon," he said, looking me up and down.
