Faint laughter haunted me as the soldiers were all replaced with traces of turpentine reeking from their veins. I stopped to look, but what was there to see? Everything was long gone, and I let it happen on my own. The bird does not need a bigger cage, for sometimes it’s best to have never been born at all.

Look Into My Eyes, and Don't Tell Me Your Deepest Thoughts
Faint laughter haunted me as the soldiers were all replaced with traces of turpentine reeking from their veins. I stopped to look, but what was there to see? Everything was long gone, and I let it happen on my own. The bird does not need a bigger cage, for sometimes it’s best to have never been born at all.
