Top View of my Brain as a Crime Scene
“I committed a crime... either killing children or chasing them away, or I was just there when it happened.”
The woman in whose head these sentences echo loudly is sitting in a forest clearing. The woods around her are being scoured by a search party. The investigation revolves around her guilt, and even after her acquittal, this feeling of guilt won’t leave her.
