Renfield sat yoga-style in the center Albino cockroaches clung to the enameled walls contrasting The chess board and its white squares populated I, in my white jacket, stared through the one-way window All the while, Cream mesmerized us PLEASE DON’T CUT THEM DOWN Allow them just to hang there. Let them hang there as martyrs |
