*Is that all you can do? this strange creature asked me.

He stood very close to me, handsome in his rich clothing, his blue eyes full of anger even though he smiled. I put my hands to my face. I wouldn’t look. I heard his voice in my ear:

*I’m watching you, angel child!, he said. * I’m waiting to see what you mean to do. So go on: walk like a child, eat like a child, play like a child, work like a child. But I’m watching. And I may not know the future, no, but i knoww this: your mother’s a whore, your father’s a liar, and the floors of your house are dirt. Your cause is lost, I know it’s lost, it’s lost every day and every hour, and you know it is. You think your little miracles will help these foolish people? I tell you, chaos rules. And I am its Prince.

it is my birthday today....
