"I wonder which of those
brought her to this place,
what monsters-internal or
external-she has fought.
I wonder what drives her
to give in to the goddess
of lust and sharp edges,
open her skin and bleed,
to purposely walk where most
digress, lost in the moment.
I wonder how it feels
to possess such courage."
- Ellen Hopkins, "Impulse"
