“Why isn’t the rabbit reflected in the water?,” I asked myself while looking at a draft of this newsletter. “You identify with the rabbit. What does it mean, to have drawn a version of yourself that leaves no mark on her environment, that can find no sign of herself in the current and future world?”

“It means,”—and this part I actually said aloud, with a deep sigh and a shake of my head—“that you drew this lying in bed while the anesthesia wore off. And if you’re seriously asking this question now, you need to get back into bed.”
