Pull up yourself together

 

Alain Tanner. “No Man's Land”. 1985

“… Attack the bones of the savior
Attack the bodies of our life
Distract the moment's true reflection
Distract when the sea is rising high
I know it's all a disguise now
I know the spirit's other side
Attack the truth that's known within you
Attack to force upon the lie…”

Lo grotesco es infinitamente más parecido a una noción de lo real que una vivencia aparente normal, carente de contrastes.
