I am not ashamed of my handwriting.

I’m ashamed to tell of it. I’m ashamed of my handwriting. It exposes me in all my spiritual nakedness. My handwriting shows me more naked than I am with my clothes off. No leg, no breath, no clothes, no sound. Neither voice nor reflection. All cleaned out. Instead, a whole man’s being, shrivelled and misshapen, like his scribble-scrabble.
