My mind is chain-smoking. It lights up before the previous cigarette dies, scared and frightened that the dying of one flame is indicative of the end of something(s) bigger.
I quote Oscar Wilde: "Don't talk about such horrid subjects. If one doesn't talk about a thing, it has never happened. It is simply expression, as Harry says, that gives reality to things".
Expression comes in many forms these days: an email that goes without reply here and unanswered phone calls there.
But shh, be quiet now. We mustn't talk about horrid things. If we choke expression and strangle acknowledgment, maybe Harry is right after all and Dorian is neither affected nor spoilt.
And we are all sinners.
