Reached for: Rabbits (II)
“I never asked to be in charge of anything. Why would I want that?”
Innocence is maintained as a position, with contribution, obligation and consequence all declined on the grounds of not being that kind of person. It was made possible by a family that indulged generously and required nothing, so capability was never built and charm took over the work. What it asks for is one obligation taken up and carried unassisted.
Cupid, still a boy after centuries, loosing arrows into other people's lives and answerable to nobody but his mother. The form implies a task of standing where the arrow lands.
