Two birds, splendid in flight, hit a glass window. Trees, hills, sky, apples, snow, heartache for one. Suburban houses, Maoists, lilies, driveways, french fries, heartbreak for the other. Their bodies are picked up off the ground by the spirit. It holds their warm broken bodies and nurses them back to health, in a box that floats strung along by butterflies high above this world, showing them things they'd long forgot. They travel for ages, or for instants, and remember the most important thing the spirit told them. They can't tell you what this is, but they sing it.
