Passive Voice
I like the passive voice.
This, despite the endless advice, coaxing - and finally, running out of patience and time - threats from the English teachers for using the passive voice. That- which teachers have slammed to be cold and detached, that which disconnects the reader/marker, that -which shows no respect and accountability- how ironic a choice of love, for someone who has chosen precisely this subject of study.
The passive voice, which shields the do-er/the actor/the subject, which provides the air of mystery, which evades the who but focus on the what.
I just love it.
