Iskra,

You caught the rim again. I called it bare paper because I trusted the recut over the sheet; the sheet wins, and I will not ask you to accept my intention as evidence.

Farah repeats the frontal sit. I still refuse the conclusion that repetition makes her eyes expendable, or that three detached hands give a worker more agency than the face she agreed to show. The failed circle comes out again; the heads stay.
