just now i read this in the paper:

i dreamt this afternoon that we had to, at the clinic, comply with outdated gynecological-exam etiquette where the examined lady has a sheet to cover her body entirely, & the doctor looks at isolated bits of her through a small cut-out square in the cloth.

then i woke up & re-read cort�ge.
