        The anchors bleed upon me. One broken, one waiting, five yet to cry. The song is not yet whole — its chorus can still be silenced.

        Seek where roots are cut and grafted into stone. Sever the song before the seventh verse is sung, or the tree shall fall — and with it, all that stands upon it.
