"What does a scanner see? into the head,down into the heart? does it see into me ? into us? clearly or darkly? I hope it see's clearly,because i can no longer see into myself.I see only murk. I hope,for everyones sake, the scanners do better. Because if the scanner see's only darkly the way that i do,then i m cursed and cursed again and will only wind up dead this way,knowing very little and getting that little fragment wrong too'
