I breathe in. the water will wash my wounds clean. i breathe out. my mother submerged me in water when i was a baby, to give me to god. it has been a long time since i thought about god, but i think about him now. it is only natural. i am glad, suddenly, that i shot eric in the foot instead of the head.
