EPIGRAPH: It's Said
That every soul enters
this world an immaculate slate.
awaiting the imprint
of parent and teacher,
the scribbling of providence.
But no truth is absolute.
More often than supposed,
a mind is born defective,
hairline fractures
spidering the native psyche,
flaws invisible to the eye.
Some cracks can't be mortared.
