"Come join us love. Take a bath". Vulnerably I do They help me remove my dress I join them they bathe me. Gentilly like a baby sitting neck deep in the bath I can't help but cry shake of confusion, sadness, worry, and grief over myself.
They say nothing while I cry instead they take care of me feed me all they are able to find-leaves and fish. they have welcomed me, washed me.
