Capture the blazing oblivion in irresistible pain!

Blinding gaze of ignorance … so stupid and vain.

That is the definition of amnesia, she told herself. So tired and annoyed by it all. The watch on the wall showed that the doctor was late. Already five minutes. She hated it when people were late. Something recoiled in her stomach. Enough waiting.
