persona (1966)

persona knowledge terrible

forces us to
feel our
loneliness

***

our inability to reach one another

this void that
keeps you
apart

***

it is the confession of our fears, man, failure, death

the
analysis of
an old man.

***

persona is the drama of a despair, silence, terror far too great to be named

he had said
far too
much

***

of life laid bare to the bone

Bare
Atrocities in
Meatpacking Plants -

***

it is a drama of skin sensitivity, faces, words and ruthlesss courage

almost morbid violence
that lay
skin-deep

***

persona is an illusion shattered, a victory over silence

I
am
. That silence
