A patient in the counseling room today described herself in a poetic passage that reminded me of Will's very beautiful statement about Hannibal.

I can feel my nerves clicking like, uh, roller coaster cogs, pulling up to the inevitable long plunge.

I felt like my nerves were rattling like the cogs of a roller coaster, driving into the sky with an inevitable fall ahead.

Quick sounds, quickly ended.

It's over in a swipe

Abigail Hobbs ended Nicholas Boyle. Like a burst balloon. She took a life.

like a popped balloon

Isn't that what it is to be alive?

Do you feel alive, Will?

Do you feel your life is alive, Will?

I feel like I'm fading.

I feel like I'm fading away.
