Text

Start:

It wasn't for long, I wasn't there long. But drinking bitter black coffee I catch that medicinal smell in a cloud of ancient tobacco and something touches me in that still place and a wound from two years ago opens like a cadaver and a long buried shame roars its foul decaying grief.

End:

Nothing can extinguish my anger.

And nothing can restore my faith.

This is not a world in which I wish to live.
