The Ambush
The moment arrives without drama. Bodies press together in a gesture that could be mistaken for tenderness, proximity masking intent. What appears as rest is vigilance; what reads as intimacy is preparation.
The ambush is not an interruption, but a condition. Violence here is subdued, folded into instinct, rendered inevitable rather than explosive. The work unsettles by refusing climax, reminding us that danger often arrives disguised as closeness, and that survival depends less on escape than on awareness.
