Ballad of the Infernal Grove
Emily Vey Duke, Cooper Battersby
»If there is ever real peace,« Mother joked once, »they’ll have to gas me like a war dog.« It’s funny because Mother knew there would be no peace for she or me. So, we infiltrate: deliberate, taciturn, benign. My mother made an instrument and it is I. Mother, I wail.
