obfuscatory

"Henceforth, the visionary experience arises from the black and white surface of printed signs, from the closed and dusty volume that opens with a flight of forgotten words; fantasies are carefully deployed in the hushed library, with its columns of books, with its titles aligned on shelves to form a tight enclosure, but within confines that also liberate impossible worlds. The imaginary now resides between the book and the lamp." - Michel Foucault from Forward to the Temptation of St. Anthony - by Flaubert



Rain feigns affection, after disaffected kisses laid dried and bitter on the lips.
