Your head is a living forest full of songbirds. ~E.E. Cummings The songbirds in my head are chirping melodically, and unlike the voices the birds make no demands. The voices want me dead chanting evil plans rhapsodically, but trilling birds notate a different choice toward a path to other lands. Lands where voices can be shed, lands wherein I dwell harmonically, lands where psyche can rejoice without annoying ampersands!
