A Tale of Fear
Silence expands, it soaks up the darkness, grows larger. So night comes, even in broad daylight. I’m between the ages of three and four and I’m supposed to get some sleep during the day. I don’t want to sleep, don’t want to fall asleep, and I’m willing to sacrifice everything in order to strike a bargain—don’t force me to fall asleep during the day. Falling asleep is disturbing, you wake up changed.
