Description
Anglicisation of Letters Nos. 3 & 4- “?” and “I Am”

Dear you,

Could I borrow your womb[1]?[2]

I said the only reason I have to live is the lack of a more sound reason to die.

My narcissism is little more than a shield; in my own eyes, ironically, no one is lower than me. I am truly the one sinner of the world. May God forgive me. I only wanted someone to care for or take care of me and to take away my sense of insecurity. What better punishment, what better penance, than to continue walking about the Earth; continue breathing water?

Painful it may be, I know that you are happy now, and I have no intent to gather your input on the matter. I hope you never want to be the one again. By now, the question is scarcely even written. More and more do I begin to see a rift, a great chasm, between the two. Can we? Yes. Do we want to? Inconclusive. Time is not just a metalinear development of space but my ally as well. I will practice at least one letter. I know not what to feel. Water is XXXX[3] air. Honesty increases as does distortion to yield balance.

Chastity, Liberality, Abstinence, Diligence, Patience, Kindness, Humility.[4]

Blasphemer, cutter, sinner, fornicator, quitter, fucker, defender, hater, emperor, liar, idolater, maligner, transgressor.

________________________________________ ______________________

[1] The womb, it should be noted, symbolises both a feeling of security as well as the author’s desire for children.

[2] This question mark does not appear in “I am”, but it is the entirety of “?”, which serves not only as an enigmatic symbol on its own but also foreshadows and completes the chief question asked in the letter following it.

[3] Illegible.
