my mother's child is a savage
she looks for her omens in the colors of stones
in the faces of cats, in the fall of feathers
in the dancing of fire and the curve of old bones

A SINGLE DIARY ENTRY​

10/09/2062 That's it. I'm never going back. Not because I don't want to but because I can't. What's the point in trying to be like her if it's always going to end like this? Ten.
