Cereal Quote by Anna Schilke

“Surreal existence. She had been a serial killer. Was she, had she been, a surreal killer? Was her former life surreal and now this, this unknown, was it real? A surreal killer. A cereal killer. What was a cereal killer? Ah, she knew, it was the person who ate the last of the Cheerios.” quote by Anna Schilke
