At the close of the eyelashes, emerging beneath awakening and radiance: this is the first glance. In this inner eye runs the dream of a lively youth, girl and boy, a promise. It is the first impulse, so that the first steps may be taken outside: the desire to flee and frolic. Before the foreign eye, animal, human, or divine, there is deep within us the inexorable perception of self, which our own creature always advances, haloed.
