Isaac Marion
It’s sad to see them staring wistfully through the window when the door isn’t locked.
Isaac Marion
Soft flesh is eaten by hard teeth.
Isaac Marion
Every time I go to sleep, I know I may never wake up. How could anyone expect to? You drop your tiny, helpless mind into a bottomless well, crossing your fingers and hoping when you pull it out on its flimsy fishing wire it hasn't been gnawed to bones by nameless beasts below.
Isaac Marion
You might say that death has relaxed me.
Isaac Marion
