"Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment. There is no why." -Kurt Vonnegut The end of the world feels like warm cement. All our bodies covered by some sort of god. Everyone is a statue now, trapped in the form. Posed, in a big boy pose, look mommy. Feeling so strong is the kind of talk that gets you killed. Good thing I let my fists do my talking. Getting killed so many times has its drawbacks.  Some days it's hard to get out of bed in the morning.
