‘We parasite each other and live among parasites’.
We inhabit the perennial genesis: — natura naturans, the never-ending chain of organisms devouring one other right down to the invisible ones:
‘The fruit spoils, the milk sours, the wine turns into vinegar, the vegetables rot... Everything ferments, everything rots, everything changes’.
Microorganisms take our dead body back to the soil — putrefaction is still life.
