With legs outstretched‚ chest gently dipping up and down and his forehead submissively being supported by his fingertips‚ Jonas Schmidt reminisced upon the caring and affectionate figure of his father. He reflected upon their journey; a collage of memories flashed through his mind- from the struggle in fleeing Germany and the rise of Nazi power‚ to the

New me; new house; new school; new everything... That’s what the annoying‚ obnoxious creature inside my addled brain repeated over and over; a moronic mantra. I loathe them and their cheap‚ over – the – counter perfume‚ their pathetic pouts constantly asking me “Are you ok?” Obviously I’m not “ok”: Trapped in this terrible tirade of torture...

The patches are different sizes‚ some as small as a coin‚ others as big as a cereal box. All sorts of shapes - octagons‚ triangles‚ decagons. Some have thirty or forty sides. I don’t know the name for a forty-sided shape. Quadradecagon? No circles. All of the patches have at least two straight edges. There are a few with curves or semi-circular bulges‚ but
