cutting the lines: with the precise, confident movements my hand cuts through the hard paper. smooth surface of the blades against the grain of the grain of the paper…
And so the room went dark. Empty those walls echo the past. The last remaining of the electricity run in the sockets. Quiet was me with only breath releasing the chest. Heart seeking peace.

R: but I need to know what we are doing? What is the plan?
