““You are free, said the stranger. Before I arrived there. Costume. I had a costume on though. I was curious: what his reaction might be? He closed his other eyes. I’ll send an ego instead of you. Getting softer, I feel it, he feels it too. Hardly moves. He chokes himself inside me. Now I must live with another dead man. It’s not even hopeless. Not vicious. Serves the absence. Delivers the unnecessary. (Lovers)””
