"I have seen what that which others were to stupid to see. Others look but they do not see -- but I see. Oh, yes I see very well. They are all in it together, you know -- all of them. They watch me. They have always watched me. I can never get away from their eyes--watching, watching, watching-- and talking, talking behind their hands, breathing their cinnamon-scented breath into each other's faces. All foul and corrupt -- scheming, plotting against me, trying to bring me down. Their eyes -- all soft and hidden and veiled with the lashes that hide the daggers of their hatred, watching, watching. And talking and talking behind their hands so that I can't hear what they're saying. Whispering. I hear it always. I hear the hissing susseration of their endless whispering. There eyes follow me wherever I go -- and their laughing and their whispering. I hear the hiss, hiss of their whispering --endless whisper --always my name -- Minkisss, Minkisss, Minkiss, again and again, hissing in my ears. Flaunting their rounded limbs and rolling their soot lined eyes. Plotting, scheming with the endless hissing whispers, always looking for ways to hurt me. Minkisss, Minkisss, trying to humilite me..."
