The past gives me goosebumps, to think about in detail, not to hover over the pits like a feather, but to burrow deep down into the cracks and the creases, to unpeel the half healed wounds and to pour salt on the cuts that are red and angry.

I've read the "other half" of this---your collaboration with Destroyer Poet, and they compliment each other in great style. Well done indeed! Greetings from one Haigh to another!
