"I have a sense of melancholy isolation, life
rapidly vanishing, all the usual things. It's very
strange how often strong feelings don't seem
to carry any message of action."
- Philip Larkin
July. The obligatory self-invitation to reflection in oneself with the environment in a common space led me to perform a full exercise of what these times of pandemic and confinement mean from the feeling that had left omitted by the fear of what to find.
As uncertainty grew and silences spaced, I found myself in ancient languages, where I used to resist from denial and only generated empty acts, so I forced myself not to leave – even though the permits existed – I forced myself to feel, to resist the affirmation of the current situation, so as to understand that reflection to what/how/how much is resisted? It is but the process of a small encounter of consciousness with the present time (still). Nothing else.
