AND SO I COME TO ISOLATION

And so I come to isolation.

And somebody mentioned this to me the other day – actually my Cape Verdean hairdresser – because I asked her “how do you say this word in Portuguese?” and she said “Isolanda.” Like an island! Like you're-you're... you're... islanded. And I thought – that's exactly what I've been. My whole life. I've been islanded.
