On a little shelf above the sink in my bathroom there's a small instalation. Between an empty bottle of Obsession and Eternity eau de toilette, there's a blade of scalpel covered in all shades of rust and... Maria's toothbrush. (Earlier, I used to keep my toothbrush in a lover's embrace with hers.)
Before Obsession, there was Euphoria, then there was Escape, then Obsession was all mine for the three long months of silence after she left. It's over now. After her inexplicable silence and a brief, puzzling meeting at Xmas I don't feel I know her anymore.
I'm holding on to Maria that I do know, though. She's the Ghost of the Summer, the Ambassador of Rotterdam and the welcoming Angel to the New Life, the New Beginning. From Her to Eternity.
