As tolerance for that which binds us betides, it also chews
ever slyly at our sense of urgency to escape it. The swamp of shit bubbling around me had become
my world. The circumstance, this bogey man, my severed tendons, my terror- All
of it was the only world in which I existed. In retrospect, it is quite startling how
swiftly I dispatched with all I knew, accepting insanity as the cool side of the
pillow. I shook hands with fear, and
agreed to remain nameless in silent subjugation. I pressed my forehead against the
window. The glass was cool.
