“There’s a porpoise close behind us, and he’streading on my tail.”

Imp types, “That evening in the museum, even if she hid her true face, she didn’t lie to you. She answered all your questions. She warned you what was coming, even if the warning was veiled. This is, at best, a paradox.”

Imp types. I type. “I see that, too.”

“Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, will you join the dance?”

Perhaps I should rip up these last few pages. Maybe I have no idea what I’m trying to say. Or I should have spent many more days working out each and every sentence on countless scraps of paper, not daring to fit them together until every word had been unerringly selected.

I am not even sure I can hear my own voice anymore. Very soon now, as I tell my ghost story, that’s what I’ll say to Abalyn, that I’m not even sure I can hear my own voice anymore.

Did you join the dance, Rosemary Anne? That last night in the hospital, did a siren come to you and tell you how delightful it would be when they take us up and throw us with the lobsters out to sea? Did you listen?
