Happy as the murder skipping down the cobblestones behind me. It's got green eyes, and it speaks of the time its father won it a large stuffed purple bear on its birhtday.

It wears torn jeans and a tee-shirt that states STRUCTURE. I understand the basic importance, yes, but not the need to shout it from a tee-shirt. That need to scream what it does not have just may be the root of its problem.

The murder, it skips by me making sounds. I watch it go. My feelings and knowledge aside, I just watch it go.
