"Hello morning my love. And kiss your face. That's warm. And hard with sleep to the touch. Closed. I know what today is even if you're unaware. I know you'd tell me if you could say. Today. Is the day you'll die. You're going off to leave me and I. I wish you would. I wish you'd learn your lesson and still come back. Wish you. Fuck you. Open your eyes. Please. And you.
Do you see me this time this day? I see you."

"I'll sit with you instead. And when the kettle's boiled I toilet roll your face. Pressured blood pressure going. Yours then mine. I clean the oil from your skin sore red and tired. For what need? You're more perfect than you were before. I'll wash your face of sacrament. Let sin to sinner return. Like me--for I know it very well."

That's the way and draw the cross again. Again. On your palms where you have sinned. And feet. There. All the oil stops the devil getting in. Out. Places where the sins come in. He says this is to comfort you in your mortal pain..."
