Before the Law

Before the law sits no gatekeeper, W. says. No one guards the gate that would allow you gain entry into the law. It stands open. It's nearly falling from its hinges. And beyond it, other doors, or empty walls where there were once doors, or rubble where there were once walls, or deserts where there was once rubble. And beyond that: empty space without stars. Nothing at all.

No one comes here, although the law is accessible to everyone. No one, and perhaps that is why: there are no more secrets. Nothing is hidden, not anymore.
