Your Body Is Speaking

Your outermost layer of skin is inflamed. The epidermis — that paper-thin, multi-layered boundary between you and the world — burns, reddens, flakes, itches. It reacts. Not deep in the body, but right at the top, where your skin ends and the world begins. Where you are touched. Where you touch.

From a medical standpoint, epidermitis is an inflammation of the outer skin — triggered by irritants, microorganisms, allergens, or mechanical friction. That is a description. It explains the how. It does not explain the why of this particular place, this particular moment, this particular intensity.
