The Portrait

What Chabane asks of its bearer

The first letter of Chabane is Sheen — an outward self that branches. At the interior, Ain brings an interior of seeing; Ba brings an interior that holds and shelters. These are what the name does without ever announcing it. Chabane ends in Nun — the life resolves into what is preserved and written. The work of the name is to let sha'ban live through every letter — so that his life takes the same shape as his name.
