“The Man Who Bears the Cross”
Jan Fabre
“With ‘The man who bears the cross,’ Fabre is formulating an ‘enlightening’ answer to any form of radicalism or extremism that wishes to establish solidarity by excluding the ‘other.'”

Your Hands
 
“Their smoothness came
winging through time,
over the sea and the smoke,
over the Spring,
and when you laid
your hands on my chest
I knew those wings
of the gold doves,
I knew that clay,
and that colour of grain.
The years of my life
have been roadways of searching,
a climbing of stairs,
a crossing of reefs.”
 
Neruda
