Quote by Ahmed Salah Al-Mahdi

“You’re just an unfortunate stranger who got caught up in things that are beyond his understanding, greater than the tangible world he touches. There is a thin veil that blinds your eyes to the things that happen right under your nose, things you cannot glimpse. But everything will be revealed to you soon.”

“The migraine held me in its gloomy embrace. I rocked in my bed. I willed the railroad spike to remove itself from my head. I counted sheep. I counted breaths. I counted back from 100. I counted on myself. The pain in my head burned lethal umber and gold, shaped like a dagger and sharp as betrayal. I named it Detective Wasserman. I gave it flesh with my worrying, and I flayed it, inch by glorious inch.”
