Automatism denies
Automatism
seems to deny the
dancing polarity
of life and death
which is to deny
the unbearable
and precious secret
that life and death
are not two~~
"While the soul really lives, its deepest dread is perhaps the dread of automatism. For automatism in life is a forestalling of the death process."
— D.H. Lawrence
