...Game evoked a mix of emotions too complicated to record and, in many ways, too difficult to recall. Every one of us felt diminished in some way when our team was the one dejectedly walking off the field while the Elis celebrated on the 'H' at midfield.

Hide, epidermis, sinew and flesh will be rendered palimpsestic and textual, echoing the blurry, layered nature of the half-remembered words inscribed on them...
