There are these Easter Eggs.  I keep finding them.
I mean.  We see what we want to see.  Of course we do.  They mean to do these things.
  They starve us when we want to be fed.  We are so ravenous, we can’t help but eat the noise when we should be quiet and remember the hunger. 
That time you taught me three things.  There was an echo.  I still hear it.
