P018 → “Siili poomine” (2022)


There are things that are so serious that it is not right to laugh at them. But there are also things that you cannot help but laugh at, that if you do not laugh at them, grow into great, serious, threatening horrors. The kind that paralyze the mind and feelings and make you believe that the end is near. How do you understand what to laugh at, what to force yourself to laugh at, and what to joke about… just not worth it?

Horrible, disgusting thoughts creep up on you like hedgehogs in the fog. With thorns, big, terrible animals. What can be done to make the fog disappear and the hedgehog turn back into a gentle, independent little animal? Is it even possible?
