what are we doing here she asked and the other she said that she didn't really know. she wondered why we're doing "this" like "this" and the other she said she didn't know that either. she, the other she, agreed with the first she and they both sighed. from then on they started to wish as one that they be taken away. this doesn't quite seem a good place they both agreed. and figured if they kept putting it out there that they wanted to leave that maybe whomever put them here, there, would take them back, agreeing it was a mistake in the first place.

but they never did.

so she and the other she are still here.

and still don't quite get why this is all happening.

but they also realized that there might not even be

a why.

so they have to figure out how to be.

and that is what they are doing.
