Damn it all to hell.
What are you doing here?

It's raining.

Of course it's raining.

It's been raining every day
for a week.

Do you have them then?

I do.
Good.

Pay me.

In good time.

Not in good time.
Pay me now.

Oh, so that's how it is,
huh?

I dirty my hands for you
and, you what?

You slit my throat?

[ Groans ]
Don't open it here, it'll stink.

Something that men like you
and I should be used to.

What happened to your leg?

God.

What?
God happened.

Indeed.

Sometimes we pay for our sins
even before we die.

You might want
to think on that.

I might.

Go ahead.

Do us both a favor
and get your ass out of here.

Let me be

Don't shout at me.
This is my damned boneyard.

Please,
let me die in peace.

Oh, no.
No, no, no, no.

This place
is not for the dying.

It's for the dead.
I'm begging you.

I'm sorry.
You have to get out.

Please!

Oh, none of that!

You need some help?

[ Insects chirping,
animals howling ]

No one can help me.

Perhaps I can help you.

Why?

I used to help people.

Why?
It's what people do.

No, it isn't.

Well, it's what
we're supposed to do.

You come with me.

Where?

I have a shack over beyond
the mausoleum.

Besides,
it's going to rain.

I'll go with you.

[ Birds cawing ]

There it is.

It's small.

Well, I was going to take you
to my mansion,

but I prefer my dingy shack
with all of its rustic charm.

That was a joke.

I do not
understand jokes.

I see.

[ Sighs ]

Hmm?

No.

Well, you don't have to just
stand there, do you?

Who is that?
Your father?

Father of us all,
perhaps.

St. Anthony.

Your father was a saint?

No, but old Anthony up there
is the patron saint

of many things,
including gravediggers.

You're not one for conversation,
are you?

No.

What's your name?

I have none.

You don't remember
your name?

I was never given one
to remember.

You're putting me on.

No.

What do people
call you then?

What the hell am I supposed
to call you, huh?

Just pick a name,
will you?

Something you like.
Anything.

I don't know many names,

and the ones I know
I don't want.

Alright then, Helga.

What?
That's your new name.

No.
What's wrong with Helga?

It's a fine Bavarian name.

It's a woman's name.

I thought you didn't know
many names.

Don't mock me.
Alright then.

How about Ingrid,
or Eva, or --

Do not mock me.

Pick a name, damn it!

You raised
your voice at me.

You raised yours first.

Aren't you afraid of me?

I am,
but I'm also in my cups.

Means I can do stupid things
even when I'm scared.

You are a strange man.

What does that
make you then?

Just strange.

Anton.

What's that?

You can call me Anton,
like your saint.

Anton it is then.

I'm Kurt Volker.

[ Bones crack ]
[ Screams

Good Christ.

Did I hurt you?
Yes.

This is my drinking hand,
too.

I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to. [ Grunts ]

I'm just alright.
Just give me a minute.

[ Groaning ]

God. Oh.

Oh.

Quite the ox, huh?

I am strong if that
is what you mean.

Ah.
Good for you.

The world always needs
strong men.

Hmm.

Here.

To keep you warm.

[ Groans ]

So, Anton the Ox, what brings
you to my boneyard?

Not many folks find themselves
here accidentally.

They're either the mourners
or the ones being mourned.

I was drawn here.

Really?

This place feels
familiar to me.

You've been here
before then? Perhaps.

Have I put one of yours
in the ground here?

Your mother, your father?

Why do you limp?

Beg pardon?
You walk with a limp.

I want to know why.

I don't see how --
Are you damaged?

I don't want
to talk about it.

I'm just asking what --

And I'm telling you
leave it alone.

Just because
I show pity on you

doesn't mean I want to tell you
my goddamn life story.

[ Thunder crashes ]

Do you have any family
near abouts?

Someone to take you in.

I have a father,
but he won't claim me.

Bastard?

I've been called that.

Ah.
You and I both.

It's no palace, but you can
sleep here tonight if you want.

Least you'll stay dry.

Then tomorrow you can go
wherever you're going.

I'm not going anywhere.

I was trying to die.

Well, you can't do that here.
I won't let you.

If I decided to,
you couldn't stop me.

Oh, you're a tough one,
huh?

You know I am.

What?

Put your arm up here
and show me.

I do not understand.

You've never
done this before?

I don't know.
Put your arm up here like mine.

Now, you try to push
my arm down.

I'll try
to push yours down.

Whoever does it wins.

This is childish.

Oh, let's see how strong you
are when I know what's coming.

I don't know I ---
Don't let my limp fool you.

I've got muscles that --

Oh.
Jesus Christ.

I win.

But I wasn't even really,
damn it.

Yes, but I won.

Again.
We're going again.

[ Grunts ]

This time don't move
until I so, huh?

On the count of three.

One.

Oh, damn it.

Are we going again?

God.

Come on.

I win again.

Sweet merciful Christ.

I've never seen anything
like that.

Shall we go again?

No, no, no, no.

If there's one thing that life
has taught me over

and over again,
to know when I've been beat.

[ Groans ]

You're with the circus,
aren't you?

What?
Strong man or something?

Pulling nails out of boards
with your bare teeth?

Bending iron bars in two?

I have never even
seen a circus.

You should seek one out.

They'd welcome you,
no doubt.

I don't do well in company
of others.

We're getting along fine.

Hmm.

Is it your face?
Trust me.

A circus wouldn't care
about that.

They might love it,
in fact.

I don't like
being stared at.

Might want to consider
unwrapping yourself.

Draws a lot of attention.

Draws more attention
without the bandages.

Can't be that bad.

That bad and worse.

Do you mind if I ask?

Ask what?
About your face?

Was it an accident?

I know a man works
at a university.

Knocked over
a beaker of acid,

damn near melted
his whole left side.

It was no acid.

Poor fellow looked
like a --

I do not wish
to discuss it.

I was just asking.
I --

I'll tell you
about my face

when you tell me
about your limp.

Fair enough.

Well, Anton the Ox,
I'm off to bed.

That's the only one I've got,

but I've got this spare room
here where I keep my tools.

There's some hay bales
that will serve as a bed.

It's yours
if you want it.

I should leave.

And go where?

Wherever I go,
tragedy follows.

Tragedy and I have known
each other a long time.

I don't fear it
and neither should you.

Besides the downpour
is still going strong.

Ah, do what you want.

I'd say not to steal anything,
but I have nothing worth taking.

What are you doing?

Stay back.
Stay back.

What are you doing here?

Another step and I'll slit
your throat for you.

Put your knife down.

Think of [inaudible]
worth is.

Put it down or I'll break
your arm, woman.

Don't touch me.

I won't.
Good.

I didn't hear you
come up on me.

I didn't wish to be heard,
so I wasn't.

Simple as that?

The only thought
I put into it.

[ Whispers ]

What?
What?

I did not know
what you said.

It loses something
in translation.

What are you doing here?

I could ask you
the same question.

I could break your neck
and take your sack from you.

[ Speaks native language ]

Not one for social graces,
are you?

No.

[ Chuckles ]

You're the gravedigger?

Is that it?

A loyal dog
guarding his hole.

I am Anton.

You are certain?

I was just recently named.

It does not sound
like my own yet.

I do not understand
what that means.

I don't know how else
to explain it.

[ Laughs ]

I like your smile.

Oh, yes.

You have a lovely face.

So I've been told.

What is your name?

Nadya.

Nadya.

That's it.

What is in your bag,
Nadya?

Bones.

Why would you have a bag
of bones?

Why do you think?

I don't know.
That's why I asked.

I'm Romani.

Gypsy.

That's right.

I use these
to see the future.

You're lying.
Don't call me a liar.

No one
can see the future.

A long list of clientele
would say otherwise.

I do not believe
in superstition.

Then what?

Science.

I believe in science.

Oh,
they're so different?

If we're going to have a chat,
sit down already.

The ground is wet
from the rain.

[ Speaks native language ]

[ Laughs ]

I'm funny to you?

Yes.
Your bottom is wet.

Thank you.
I'm well aware.

You knew it had rained,
but you sat down anyway.

That was foolish.

I wasn't thinking.

You behaved foolishly.
[ Laughs ]

Are you quite finished?

And now
your bottom is wet.

You're a strange giant.

I have never
laughed before.

Not that I can remember.

Nonsense.
It's true.

I am younger
than I look.

I can't tell
how you look right --Don't.

It's so terrifying?
Do not touch me.

Not something
I'm often told.

Why would you want to?
To see your face.

I'm always curious.

The more something is hidden,
the more

I want to take it
out of the shadows.

I belong where no one
can see me.

That makes me want to...

Oh!

...and look.

Now we're touching.

Don't.
Not so bad, is it?

Don't.
Don't what?

Do not touch my face.

I haven't.
And I won't.

But before you wanted
to see it and --

I will only see it
when you let me, not before.

I will never want that.

I can be
very persuasive.

Since I have provided
this evenings entertainment,

perhaps you'll let me
leave with my bag

and with my limbs intact.

I won't hurt you.

I wouldn't have let you
if you tried.

I want you to stay.

That's sweet,
but I'm not staying in this

graveyard all night.

Lots of Strigoi
about.

Evil spirits.

You like to use words
I don't know.

That makes you feel smart.

You're a clever
[speaks native language].

Until next time, Anton.

So, you'll return?

Yes, I think I will.

And, are we friends?

with you, huh?

[ Coughs ]

Yours is not the ideal face
to wake up to.

I want to stay.

What?
I want to stay.

I heard you,
you damn lummox.

Will you just get inside?

If your offer
still stands,

I would like to stay here
with you.

If my...
What the hell?

You offered me
the tool room.

For one damn night.

I wish to stay longer.

Well,
I wish for a buxom lady

with a stein
between her breasts.

Mine is a life
of disappointment.

And now I remember
you don't understand jokes.

The gypsy sat on wet dirt
and got her bottom wet.

I don't get it.

It was a joke.
I still don't get it.

It made me laugh.

[ Groans ]

So, you want to stay,
huh?

Yes.
Why?

I have nowhere
else to go.

I came here to die,
but I no longer wish to that.

And I like it here.

You like the graveyard?

It's peaceful.

I have known very little peace
in my life.

I like the quiet myself.

So, I can stay?

Just give me a moment,
will you?

I'm barely awake and...

You have no money, no prospects.
And I should what?

Give up my peace and quiet
for a boarder?

I don't even know you.

I don't know you either.

That's hardly the point,
is it?

Is it?
[ Groans ]

Every time
you open your mouth

I don't know whether to laugh
or to punch you.

You helped me before,
why won't you help me now?

It's not so simple.

Explain it to me.
I can't.

I want to understand.
[Indistinct] stop talking.

And will you just shut
your flapping jaws

for a [indistinct]?

[ Panting ]

I've been alone
for a long while here.

It's the way I prefer it.

When other people are around,
it complicates things.

I don't like complications.

I am a complication?

Yes.
I'm sorry, but yes.

So, you do not like me?

No,
that's not what I said.

You're alright,
I guess.

You either talk too much
or too little, but yes,

I've definitely
known worse than you.

Well, thank you.

I just...

I'm a drunk
and crippled ass.

I'm not
a good companion.

I like you.

You're the only person who has
ever shown me kindness

in my entire life.

Well,
I'm sorry to hear that.

I tell you a secret.

Alright.

I'm a hair's breath
from losing this job.

Really?
I can't dig for shit anymore.

I have a hard enough time
getting around with this leg.

The church, they keep me on
as a kindness,

but that can hardly
keep up anymore.

People drop like flies in this
town as they can't afford

to hire another man to help,
so there it is.

I can dig for you.

Yes, you can.

I am stronger
than anyone.

I can dig many graves.

At night.

You'll dig at night and stay
in the shack during the day.

That way no one will know.

That works for me.

I have no desire
drawing attention to myself.

I won't be able to pay you,
but you can stay here

and I will share
my meals with you.

That's all I ask.

Alright, then.

You're helping me again.

No, I'm helping myself.

You just happen
to be here.

I think
it's more than that.

It's not.
I think it is.

Shut your gum
before I change my mind.

Thank you.

Don't thank me,
this is entirely self-serving.

You're a good man.

And you are one sentence away
from fouling the deal.

Ah.
Gentle this time.

I like my knuckles lined up
the way they are.

Yes.
Well done.

And that took you
not even an hour

and I don't see
one drop of sweat.

That was not
difficult work.

How could you say that?

In my prime, this hole would
have taken me half the night.

Your prime and mine

What is it?

Schnapps.

I like it.

If it's one thing we Bavarian's
know, it's schnapps.

Where are you from,
Anton?

Many places, I suppose.

I think I was born
in Ingolstadt,

but most of my life
was spent in Switzerland.

An orphan?

Abandoned.

My father saw my face
and left me.

Christ, I'm sorry
to hear that.

I hate him
or I hated him.

I can no longer
tell the difference.

Oh, you've done well
for yourself.

Got an education.

Experience only.

Little of it good.

Well, you speak proper.

I enjoy language.

There was a time when I wasn't
capable to communicate at all.

It was maddening to have
these feelings, these thoughts,

and the urge to express them,
but not the ability to do so.

For some that would be
an improvement.

It must hurt.

I imagine everything that lives
wants to be understood.

Anton, my friend
I will drink to that.

I never had a friend.

Come now.

Truly.

Those who didn't wish me
dead simply fled from me.

You're a hunted man, then?

Once, but I fled
beyond their reach.

A criminal.

I've done terrible things.

I was young.

I had no control
over what I felt.

I raged against those
who hurt me the most,

and some of them died
because of it.

[ Grunts ]

Ego te absolvo.

I'm wet and confused.

I just absolved you
of your sins.

And I did it in Latin.

You did?
Oh, yes.

It's the language
God prefers his prayers in.

Are you a priest?

Well, Brother Anton,
I'm off to perform a miracle.

Turning schnapps
into piss.

Well, what should I do?

Whatever you want.
This is your home now.

I need guidance.

Do you know what I do when
I'm in need of some thinking?

No.
How could I know that?

I walk amongst these graves,
read what little I can

on the stones, learn about
some people this earth holds.

What I suggest to you is that
you take your past,

you bury it
in one of these plots,

and then start thinking
of your future.

I never thought of my future,
only where I was

and what I felt
at that moment.

[ Blows raspberry ] To find
faith, you achieve nothing.

Hello, Giant.

Hello, Nadya.

I'm sorry.
Please, don't.

If I was meant to fly,
I'd have a beak and feathers.

Chickens have beaks
and feathers.

They cannot fly.

Yes, they do.

I don't think so.

Chickens fly, Anton.

I have never
seen them do so.

I have met many strange men
in my day,

but you may very well
be the strangest.

You do not need
to insult me.

Not an insult.

Strange means interesting.

Very, very, very few men
are interesting anymore.

Oh, thank you.

Bentru Putin.

Are you here
for more bones?

Not this time.

Dirt?

Grave dirt.

Very potent.

How can dirt be potent?

Good for seeing the past
and the future.

I have new client,
wants to see his future.

So I asked him
a few questions,

and he mentioned
this graveyard several times.

So we'll take the dirt, mix it
with wax, and make a candle.

To see the future?

Yes.

With a candle?

Yes.

You are as strange
as I am.

What I am is penniless.

I'll take whatever clienti
I can get.

So, this month has been good
to you, yes?

What?

You're looking less ragged.

I do not understand.

Those clothes, better than the
scraps you were wearing before.

I took them off
a dead man.

[ Laughs ]

He did not need
them anymore.

My thought as well.

We have something
in common.

We are both of us, corbi,
picking off the dead.

You mean crows.

Very good, giant.

You have learned
some of my language.

I was hoping
to see you again.

You were hoping
to impress me, yes?

I have a favor
to ask of you.

Ah, yes.

What might that be?

I want to know
my future.

Is that all?

Should I ask more?

You should always ask
for what you want,

be prepared
not to get it.

My entire life I learned to
expect nothing from anybody.

And yet here you stand
with a set of new clothes.

You have a point.

So, what of your future
do you wish to know?

Anything, everything.

Those are two
very different answers.

I never thought of my future.

In fact, I doubted I would live
this long and, but now --

Now your life
has changed?

Yes.

For the better?

I think so.
I hope so.

You wish to know if this
better life will last?

Very much.

Sit with me.

Why do you hide
your face?

I have no face.

Well, you have eyes.

Yes, I'm made that way.

You have a mouth
and I'm guessing a nose.

But together
they're monstrous.

I'm sorry.

I always
looked like that.

This place is the first place
nobody runs from me.

It is why I like coming
to places like this.

A sanctuary for outcasts.

I'm so lovely you cannot help
but stare, is that it?

You don't look
like an outcast.

The gypsy,
we belong nowhere.

You have tribes,
family, friends.

I'm the last
of my people here.

The others have moved on.

You did not go with them?

I couldn't.
They cast me out.

Why?

Hurts to tell it.

I understand.

You couldn't,
it didn't happen to you.

My little life I had, I lost
and I carry that loss with me

everywhere I go.

Is that where your kindness
comes from?

Am I kind?

Very.

You have a child's heart.

It gives itself completely

and shatters
at the smallest hurt.

I was stronger inside.

You will be strong
or you will be dead.

no others.

I had a child.

You seem too young.

Not so young as all that.

My child, my girl...

she was incrucisat, mixed,

her father was not my tribe,
not of any tribe.

That's why they sent
you away?

Yes.

With my people,
that is great shame.

It cannot be washed away.

So they cast me
to the winds.

I'm sorry.

I was young, a fool.

I went to the father,
he was man of numbers.

How do call him a man
who counts money?

A banker.
Banker, yes.

He had come to my camp,
and I had loved him.

But I loved him
with a child's heart, foolish.

I went to his house,
and his wife answered.

He was married to another.

As I said, a fool.

He came to the door,
dragged me to a field,

and threw us
both on the ground.

Me and my Dorina.

I do not know that word.

Not a word, a name.

It means gift.

My gift.

Her father wanted
nothing to do with us.

Swore he'd kill us if he
ever saw us again, so I ran.

I tried to live in the woods,
but Dorina did not survive the year.

[ Grunts ]

I see a rage, Anton,

but this is the past
and it cannot be changed.

I want to hurt that man.

As did I,
but it would help nothing.

Murder does not
bring peace.

You know this
better than most.

I do.

So, I came here.

Ingolstadt is not
such a bad place.

Lots of places to hide,
lots of drunks

who don't guard
their pockets.

You're a thief?

I'm whatever I need to be
to survive.

I understand that.

You have my hand.

I've been reading it.

What?

Your hand holds many things,
including the future.

I have been following the lines,
trying to learn where they lead.

Should I pay you?

You have let me steal bones
and dirt,

and eased my burden
a little.

No charge this time.

What do you see?

It is confusing.

Yours is a strange hand.

Yes.

You are -- you were a man
of the fields.

A farmer.

No.

You were.
I can see it.

I never spend a day

You're certain?

I am.

Well, you have known
great love.

I have?
Yes, it is here.

A wife you loved
among all others.

No.

I know what is on your palm,
Anton?

Whatever you reading, this

I think you are
being stubborn.

I think you're perhaps
not as good as you think.

You would say such things
to one you fancy?

You think I fancy you because
of what you see in my palm.

Because of what I see
in your eyes.

And I do not think,
I know.

There is no shame in this,
my giant.

Few can resist my charms.

You're very confident.

Well, I am many things,
all of which are Nadya.

Do not turn away.

What you feel,
it's a good thing.

The rush of blood,
the blush in your cheek,

there is nothing better.

I do not wish
to talk about it.

So bashful you are.

I feel strange, confused.

Tis the way of affection.

It should be embraced,
not feared.

But what if
it's not returned?

My sweet
kind hearted friend.

Why do think
so little of yourself?

I'm a monster.

Not in my eyes.

You would not say that
if you knew what I have done.

People I have hurt,
killed.

Monster would not hurt
inside as you do now.

I do not know how to atone
for them.

You can't.

You can only do
what you have already done.

Start over?

Yes.

Give me your other hand.

Why?

This hand
tells me your past.

It is your future you wish
to see, yes?

I do.
And my friend, give me your other hand.

Cacat.
What is it?

What are you?
I do not understand.

Why do you have two hands?

Most people
have two hands.

These are not the same hands.
These are...

What?
The problem is same.

Both of them have --
They do not even feel the same.

The palms, the knuckles,
even the skin.

These are the hands
of two different people.

This is what
your face is like,

a collection
of other men's faces?

Do not ask me that?

Good God, what are you?

A monster.
I told you.

I didn't believe you.

Do you now?
Don't hurt me.

What?
Nadya, I'm not your enemy.

I'm going to leave now,
Anton. No!

I'm going to leave,
and you are going to stay.

I couldn't bear it
if you hated me.

Just let me go.

You wanted
to tell me my future.

You have no future,

Let me go.

It doesn't.

I'm no better

[ Sobbing ]

She said she was my friend.

She was surprised,
and then --

and then she saw
what I really was.

She saw what I truly am.

And she fled.

I should have known
it was a woman.

You're not the first one to go
mad over a broken heart, Anton.

Nor will you be the last.

All my life
I have been betrayed.

Always.
Always.

No such thing.

A child is always a child
until he becomes a boy,

and then a man
and then a corpse.

Take it from an old
gravedigger on that.

She said I have no future.

Will you wake up tomorrow?

Will something happen then?

That's the future.

Happens whether we think
it will or not.

Oh, my God.
I'm sorry!

Why?
Didn't that hurt?

Where you cut
yourself?

No,
I didn't cut myself.

I stabbed myself!

I'd think you were drunk already
if I hadn't drained

the last
drop myself yesterday.

You don't believe me?

No, but when a man loves
a woman and then...

I just think you're not thinking
straight is all.

Do you know much
about women?

Well, yes.

Well, not as much as some.

What kind of question
is that?

I don't know. How many kinds
of questions are there?

You were right about me.

I was a priest, long ago.

A lifetime ago.

I was happier then,
until I met a woman.

Had you not
met women before?

No.

This woman in particular.

Oh.
A married woman at that.

The father hired her on
to clean the church.

She wasn't a real beauty, Anton,
but her heart,

so kind and pure

and nothing but love
for this whole rotten world.

We talked,
and she laughed.

Oh, that laugh.

Hers was a marriage
of convenience,

though not that convenient
for me.

I loved her.
I didn't want to.

I tried not to, but it happened
all the same.

Did she love you in return?

She did.

So I abandoned everything
I ever believed in,

this whole life I thought was
going to be my fate forever.

All for her.

What of the husband?

We kept that the secret
at first,

her from him,
me from the church.

But secrets never keep.

So I left the clergy
and she left her husband,

but he killed her, Anton.

Took a knife and just...

Then he came after me.

I was in the church
saying my goodbyes

when all of a sudden
this madman burst in.

He grabs me.

He throws me up
against the altar

and he sets
the church on fire.

Says he was going to send us
all to hell.

Poor bastard didn't count
on him dying first.

The timbers went up
like match sticks

and the burning curtains,
they fell on him.

That seems just.

Oh, there was justice
to be had that night,

but that wasn't it.

So there I was watching
everything

I know burn around me,
except it wasn't just me.

Five other people, men who had
been my friends

my entire life,
were going to die

because of what
I had done.

You did not
set the fire.

Oh, I didn't strike the tinder,
but I lit it all the same.

But I knew I had to get
to these men out.

The whole church
was falling in on itself.

So I started grabbing these men
and dragging them out.

The last of them,
my friend Gregor,

I had him over my shoulder
when all of a sudden,

down comes crashing
a support beam.

I managed to toss him out,
but then everything went black.

When I woke up,
the church, gone.

My leg, crushed,
broken beyond repair.

And thatwas justice, Anton.

I do not understand.

God was punishing me
for what I had done.

He could have killed me
that night,

but I guess he's kinder
than that, or crueler.

Hard to tell sometimes.

So the church kept me on as
a courtesy, tending the dead.

Every night since that night,
I spend cleaning the paths,

reading the stones
and drinking away a life

I remember the way someone
remembers a story

he was told long ago.

Why did you tell me this?

One day, Anton,
I will have to look

God in the eye and answer
for what I have done.

I think it will be easier if
I can do something good again.

my church and my leg,

he wants nothing
to do with.

He turns his back.

I turned mine.

That's that.

your church down.

You tried to stop it.

And I'm sure the ashes
thank me for my efforts.

when a child is born

it has time to grow,
to learn and adapt.

I think --

I think this is where a soul
is formed.

But my creature
lacked all that.

He began his existence
fully formed

in a body stronger
than any 10 men,

but with the emotional capacity
no greater than an infants.

Do you understand
what I'm saying?

I'm sorry, I don't.

A baby is upset.

It lashes out.

But it is small, fragile,
can harm no one.

Now imagine that same
blind emotion pure

and unaffected by thought,

but with the strength
of a giant behind it.

What the hell --
I fled from it.

I saw it rise up.

I saw its scarred
and mangled face.

Its dead, soulless eyes.

And I ran.

I left it to the world
in hopes

that it would sputter out

But it didn't die.

It endured in the world.
It offered it nothing but hate.

And so it became as monstrous
within as it was without.

who found me?

It's not so strange a thing,
