/SINOPSYS

Him – She’s at home, filled up with any other world but this one. She’s filthy. She’s never stopped watching me. She’s charged with a feverish energy. It makes me sick.

Her – He is whatever I make him into. He comes from a time dragged like a dead goat. He’s all rotten inside. Death draws him out cruelly. That is, I simply make him into himself. A decomposing body that contaminates me. I feel sick.
