Theres an artist who specialises in portraits. Know what he did to portray the character of his clients? He studies their boots. If he was here right now hed study your boots to find out everything about you. Like the others study palms, and the others study the shape of your skull. Phrenologists. Others read the tea leaves at the bottom of your cup. And there all those others who study your dreams and the consistency of your shit and the mucus running down your nose and the map of pimples on your face and backside. Life. Like we are all hidden from God and he has to study us like that to discover the nature of the bastards he created. If you create life out of yourself, is that incest? Thats what he did, rubbing himself up to ejaculate us into the world. - Dambudzo Marechera, The Concentration Camp, Scrapiron Blues. Copied from Mehul Gohil
