My silent confidant:<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You perhaps will be surprised suddenly to receive a letter from the person who presumably for you has been dead for a long time and as good as forgotten, or forgotten and as good as dead. I dare not assume more surprise than that.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/span>A great future behind me, I have always been what they call a hero on tiny feet. Flexible and yielding, difficulties holding my balance or walking in a straight line, capable only of the feeblest and gentlest of movements: a hundred or more pairs of shoes available to me \u2013 shiny leather, Cuban heels, most delicate ornaments; tasseled penny loafers, flesh-colored silky pointe shoes, monk straps, wingtip spectators, character shoes with clacking taps \u2013 but to walk, Alas! neither them nor I would or could. Thus here I stand, a change in plan, immobilized and content.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/span>I flourish in the shade. The only writing you will do is in the bottom right corner of this document, he insisted. So I hurried at once to town and sold my name to a local tailor. Ah, renouncing only ever begins in the kingdom of the nameless. Any man can feign secret dealings with some divinity or train a bird to speak in his ear. What kind of bird would speak into mine, and what would it betray?<\/em><\/p>\n<\/span> You must understand, in my current situation not many words are available to me. Or rather, I would not touch them with a barge pole. They are of as little use to me as I am to them. To describe the whole situation, then, would be hideously boring for all parties concerned. I do have one advantage, however. I can stop anywhere, just as I can clip at any time the thread I am myself spinning. Only this much I shall give away: If memory serves me well, all this is a prelude for something that is bound to happen, something of minor significance, a one, two, three, several steps with a count. Three cheers for tiny feet under the curtain – ah! to feel the breath of the public – ah! to be visibly hidden from their appetites. Three cheers for an empty stage, a void, an endless \u2018if I wanted to\u2019 – – three cheers, bravo, applause and encore!<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I remain, Sir, etc. etc.<\/em><\/p>\n
