I see it as this irreplaceable living being
that one day enters my space, enters this place where it
can encounter me, see me, even see me
naked. Nothing can ever take away from me the certainty that what we
have here is an existence that refuses to be conceptualized. And a mortal
existence, for from the moment that it has a name, its name survives it.
It signs its potential disappearance. Mine also, and this disappearance, from
that moment to this is announced each time that, naked or not, one of us leaves
the room.
