I was a child who hid. Under tables, under stairs, behind sofas. At first, the hiding was a gathering in of grown up things: words passed between my mother and my aunts, between my older sisters, of rare arguments between my parents, their words like small weak bullets fired from armchair to armchair. Later, my hiding was from myself, from what had been done or seen. I hid inside secrets and words, behind silence and acquiescence, behind malleability. I hid in woods where older children stood like trees, where they showed who and what they were only when I had moved beyond the swings, beyond the roundabouts.
