Modeste is a misnomer.
 She doesn't know how to be discreet.
 
 She possesses a somewhat overflowing joy.
 a way of being in the world without restraint,
 as if everything had to be experienced fully.
 
 Its colors, its materials, its details
 appear to have been chosen without any specific rule.
 guided solely by desire and the pleasure of the act.
 
 She holds her little doll close to her.
 like an echo of herself,
 a more fragile double that she protects without thinking about it.
 
 Nothing is perfectly aligned,
 And that is precisely what makes it come alive.
 Every seam, every assembly
 bears this deliberate imperfection,
 signature of a free creation.
 
 Modeste doesn't hold back.
 It exists, entirely.
