sweet animosity

Can a man lose his soul?

If he can, or if he does, how then is he supposed to search for it? How is he supposed to bring it back? Can man survive without it? Without his soul, can a man still feel? Can he still appreciate? Would he still know nostalgia and anxiety? Without his soul, how can man hold on in faith that his soul would come back to him? Can he mourn? Or at the very least, sense desolation? Wouldn’t he end up as some zombie? Wouldn’t it be better if man were dead without his soul? Then again, how would man wish to be dead without the very soul that makes living probable, without him knowing that that’s actually what’s missing?

On the other hand, would the soul be desperately seeking man, too?
