“DOUBTS ARE LIKE SWALLOWS.
They follow each other and swarm together.
I stared at myself in the mirror.
I stared at my face until it was not my face.
I went back to the table and sat down and I did not say how I was feeling to anyone.
To say how I was feeling would lead to feeling more of what I was feeling.
To act normal would be to feel a bit more normal.
I acted normal.”
