The self, then, as a performed character, is not an organic thing that has a specific location, whose fundamental fate is to be born, to mature and to die; it is a dramatic effect arising diffusely from a scene that is presented, and the characteristic issue, the crucial
concern, is whether it will be credited or discredited.

ondaatje, secular love

You said, this
doesn’t happen so quick
I must remind you of someone.

                             No,
though I am seduced
by this light, and
frantic arguments
on the porch,
I ain’t subtle
you run rings
round me

                             but this quietness
white dress               long legs
arguing your body away from me

And with all the hunger
I didn’t know I had.
