Every seeming equality conceals a hierarchy.
Curiosity is an asset mostly frittered away.
Vanity well fed is benevolent. Vanity hungry is spiteful.
Repetition comforts me for a time, then closes in.
Looking backward at what has been lost, I feel sad, then indifferent, and at last relieved.
Seek and Hide: the Lover gazes at the Beloved. The Beloved looks away. The Beloved turns and looks at the Lover. The Lover runs away.
