Who could judge?
We are constantly judged by others,
or doubly judged, for we also judge.
Silently. Scared by any evidence.

And what if we decide to do it out loud?
To show, to exhibit, to face ourselves.
Or, as Pasolini dared say,
to throw the bowels on the table.
Maybe that way the alien judgement is frustrated, and ours free.

Katharsis is hypocrisy.
Hypocrite: someone who is not able to accept what he is.
And finally, an interpreter, an actor, a mime, an impure.
Or so thought the Greeks.
