   Summary

   And what is pride, anyway? What is enjoyment? The swell of trumpet-fanfare in your chest, screaming out involuntarily from behind your teeth, leaving hot breath hanging in the air? The clog of something sticky sweet in your arteries, pushing its way to your heart, trying to kill you? Or, what? You think it’s something softer? Something more suited for the human body to hold?
