#multivocal

...The complex texture stemming from the interplay of so many factors or voices is not characterized by fragmentation but rather by an all-encompassing sense of connectedness or wholeness.’

With all the holes in you already there's no reason to design the outside environment as alien.

When I’m writing a new play, there’s a period where I know I shouldn’t be out in public much. I imagine most people who create go through something like this. You willfully loosen some of the inner straps that hold your core together. You become more porous and multivalent and multivocal, so that the multitudes you have inside yourself can start to get up and walk around and emerge.

No one else can do what I have done, I know that, because it took a spiritual vision allied to sensuality to clothe in flesh such deep meanings, and it took a life in hell and many lives of painful explorations, and it took even a dangerous sojourn in the world of madness and the capacity to return to tell what I have told. Centuries of civilization too, it took birth, tradition, it took my freedom from economic slavery, which gave me my integrity, it took a body to live it all out, a soul willing to burn the dross.
