How do I appear unthreatening when her lover's blood is running down my chin?
Isaac Marion
Image
Once again the absurdity of my inner thoughts overwhelms me, and I want to crawl out of my skin, escape my ugly, awkward flesh and be a skeleton, naked and anonymous.

Once you've arrived at the end of the world, it hardly matters which route you took.
