Though vivid rooms fail to lay still, her words still echo as if they were.
Ballerinas twirl on a music box spiral as the mechanical pieces exchange incoherent words and gossip among broken wires and springs.
Though she twirls and mimics those of brainless minds and souless hearts, she still trips and stumbles to mute laughter.

No one has bothered with the struggling woman. hardly anyone has even noticed. They all just sit on their spirals in harmony, playing their repeating tunes in circles they go.
