you don’t know your mother’s real name. you don’t know your father’s real name. one day, you will not know your own name. you will have forgotten it. or perhaps it will have been stolen from you. your children will not know your name. you will hold them gently, cradle them, give them names while knowing that you will not be able to protect them, either the children or their names. you grow up in the same house as all your ancestors, wear their clothes, repeat their stories, but you know nothing about any of them. they are all, just like you, another link in an identical chain. you sign your real name for the last time as you sign away your life, watching it change before your eyes, forcing any sense of individuality out of you. you are not a person. you are a role. you do not need a different name - there is only one, forever.
