Burnt Words

Time seemed to have just gone, in big clumps, or all the day was happening at once, or something. I was wondering so hard about what was to come, I was watching to hard the differences from our normal days. I wished I had more time to think, before she went right down, all the way down; my mind was going breathless, trying to get all it's thinking done. ~ Margo Lanagan, Black Juice
