David LevithanThere comes a time when the body takes over the life. There comes a time when the bodyโs urges, the bodyโs needs, dictate the life. You have no idea you are giving the body the key. But you hand it over. And then itโs in control. You mess with the wiring and the wiring takes charge.
David LevithanAnd I told you: I think of a photograph you took of me, up in Montreal. You told me to jump in the air, so in the picture, my feet are off the ground. Later, I asked you why you wanted me to do that, and you told me it was the only way to get me to forget about the expression on my face. You were right. I am completely unposed, completely genuine. In my mindโs eye, I picture myself like that, reacting to you.
