MANTIS
GOTTESANBETERIN
Out of the pathological desire to fuse with the other emerges a bug. Without the ability of touching nor being touched. Beings that devour each other in order to get a hold of the other. In the process of digestion, they asume traits of the other and become one. United in their narcicism, inevitably alone. A skin under another skin, that makes them impermeable, impenetrable, immovable an autoreferencial. Skin-blind. They cover the lack of sensations with codified images. They dance on a battlefield, waiting for the invisible enemy.
