“You only hear him once—the half-second between drip… and drop.”

“The stones look the same… until one of them wraps around your legs.”

“He does not see your face. He remembers your steps.”

“If the worms are already on the ceiling, you are late to the killing.”

“Count the beats. Plant the pins. When the wall breathes in—lift.”
