Catalogue Note

"I ceased to get confined in a neutral space and thus I found my moon. In its vacuumed atmosphere I found a twin, a twin outside my world. I found him, he found me. In twilight, we hurtled through the universe unstoppable. But when the sun showed its face, we scuttled for cover yet found none. Taking turns to shield one another.. we died, drenched and dried, bones cracked, skin and blood dissolving into star dust..."
