My apologies. I have caused you undue vexation by speaking so incomprehensibly.
No, I am still misunderstanding.
You have cast yourself as the thing
that you fear you may be perceived to be,
as the shadow, in order to expunge the shadow,
to force me to choose which to see in you.
It was brilliant. Your blade remains sharp.
Keep it so. Keep it true.
