The Last Letter From a Father

 Dear Prudence, 

   Today was your 8th birthday and you grow more beautiful every time I see you. Your mother was the most beautiful woman I’ve ever known,  and I think your beauty will surpass hers one day. My heart aches seeing you grow; your eyes, your smile, your hair, everything about you makes me think of your mother. I can’t continue without her, today after listening to you laugh and looking at your smile I’ve made my mind up. I’m sorry I couldn’t be more of what you deserved. It’s probably best if you forget me.


Goodbye.

Feel the minds that would see slide right off. They inherently don ’ t want to see. Grant them their wish. ”   The feeling that Vanessa had learned from Cassius that first night moved from her arms, down her fingers, and slid out into the world.   “ Yes... ” The companion sighed in ecstasy. “ Can ’ t you feel the eyes of the world slide right off? Think of all the things that can be lost. Think of all the things that we can find. ”   The thoughts agreed. Sometimes it was best to move unseen, but sometimes it was best if people just let the things that used to be important to them slip away.

Patient Notes

  Patient notes of Dr. Barclay   Clarissa Arrives in her usual late manner well-dressed slightly disheveled A/O x3   Clarissa seems to be more distracted than usual at beginning of treatment Reports auditory and visual hallucination.           Visual hallucinations of dark angel like creatures.   This has some correlation to her dissertation from art school Auditory hallucinations a repeated phrase. “Oblivio Accedit” (research later) Clarissa showed me several drawings of her interpretation of these figures.   The pictures had a noticeable gradation to more disturbing and less similar to original works. Suggesting increased stress and increase of symptoms.   Agreed to a short break from her to see if her preoccupation on angels for her graduation is the source of these hallucinations.           Consider chlorpromazine therapy if pre schizophrenia symptoms continue to worsen.      ~~~     Detective Pellecano Arrives surprisingly punctual and appropr
