LIGHT MELTS AWAY:

NOTHING.  Nothing is worth any amount of anger, in this life or the next.
NOTHING.  Does a body fall moreslowly in the snow?

Out from in, under streetlights.  Bloated thoughts form.
'It makes people shimmer,' Jen said.  But where is Jen?  Where is John?  Where is Mark?
Where have I gone?

                                         Nothing is worth your anger. NOTHING.
