    Okay.

    What the hell does THAT mean?

    Held down: yes. As if strapped to a table. Could I be in traction in some sick bay, some hospital ward?

    Not necessarily one of ours.

    But at the same time, parts of me being moved around, emptied out. As if under general anaesthetic, dimly conscious, half-aware as the surgeon cuts off my feet and sews them onto my shoulders. She opens my head with a medical hammer and sand spills out.

    I WANT TO DIE I WANT TO-
