I have a picture of him on my wall. A self-portrait, with three little creatures climbing on his head. I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to rip it down, tear it into shreds like I did her poem. Each and every time, I managed not to. I put the knife through myself instead.

"Why?"

Because I'd regret it if I ruined the picture. Ruining myself is justified. I don't have far to go.
