SABLE: Sometimes I have dreams about her but not like dirty dreams but dreams with clothes on and stuff. When she talks to me. . . like. . .I listen Like she’s actually making sense and that . . . and I know bare things about her too, like her last name, and her cat’s name, and her birthday.

[... … …]
