a child yearning for their parent’s touch, flinching at the grasp of anyone else’s
never introduced to kindness nor stability --- a child will seek comfort in forms outside human possibility
the bottom of a bottle, the inscription on a pill, the smoke of a substance
people never wanted a child and the child does not need people
