Everything that is said is not always said with the tip, the most sensitive part of the tongue. We enter each other at our most vulnerable and spread open our arms to keep balance as we walk on palpitating threads. Where you dig doesn’t matter, you always end up in China, one way or another, so always have your spoons ready to feed.
