Who is to say that "you" is you and "I" is me? Who is to say every penny thrown in a well is to wish for something you don't already have. I have three empty bullet cases in my pocket and a funny reason for each of them being there. You look out the window and discover a body floating face down in your pool except you don't have a pool and the body is you. It's me. It's everything that never was. I am a punch line in search of a set up. What is it like under your bed? Have I become the monster that lives under it?
