se gandeste ea la plecare,la calatorii,dupa fiecare,se spune,suntem altii...? cred ca nicio lume reala nu poate concura cu lumea din spatele genelor ei,a invaluirilor si gesturilor pline de val-acolo,atat de bogat totul,cum se invarteste totul si se inchide in soapte gata-gata sa fie rostite
When we’re apart I imagine us in Japan, two hundred years ago, behind a screen, or watching the snow from the yawn of a paper room, the lovers in some shunga by Harunobu. It’s that formality we sometimes need to feed desire: intimate, yet giving in to light and shadow, allowing the other space to be intact and seen, like the single pine in a yard of gravel, revealed by the tug of the grain and this curtain of snow.
