The imagination/the images that pour out on a powerful current once outside the tank/that the University/has become. Casa Pánica. Restrictions that they themselves don’t understand. That they don’t believe in themselves. There are more interesting forms of doubt than the pedestrian and sterile self-referential. My life is elsewhere.
