““I didn't blame Wes. I actually didn't blame anybody except myself. Really, what did I have in my life that was so bad it raced under my skin until I couldn't stand it anymore and I had to give it a place to come out? I didn't know.

Inside, the instruments were lines up on a folded snowy white pillowcase, still sterile and gleaming from Eater night.””
