((The Swan))




Last night me and a friend went outside for a clove. On the way down, she spotted an oragami swan. She picked it up and gave it to me, but then she decided that we should burn it.

We were sitting on the benches outside in the quad, and she lit the swan's beak on fire. The fire slowly burned away his head, and then consumed its folded legs, worked its way to the wings, and finally consumed the tail.

I looked at the stars and said that everything exists in our minds. There is nothing that cannot be conceived of.
