A mountain goes unsaid

-by Olga Blázquez Sánchez-.

It has been very difficult for this story that I am writing now to shake off the false anthropic protagonisms: while I name the mountain, it makes itself out of an ungrammatical matter, as far from language as it is from crampons and ice axes. The mountain asserts itself without words. Alone and so full of all the forces, links and processes that shape it. In the middle of it all, a small human body crosses the landscape. Yes, it's true, there it is; do you see it? But it does not occupy the centre. It is not the only one, but just one more.
