DEVOTION the moan bird is soaring in the house of bats he is seeking washers of souls for his own reasons not the ones you think of a soul-washer sees him but she does not pause at her work or signal him she knows the people have pounded him with prayers like nails but she does not want to help him shed his nails or step out of his feathers she wants to keep washing souls with tears and piss of course they are no cleaner but they are readier to be human again
