The Trauma to Come

Upon his release, he forgot what brought him there.  He could only recall life draining from another.  It was probably by his hand.  They were there, he was there, suspended in the elapsed time.  How long had it been?  The answer remained a mystery.  He was released and that was all.  That was all he needed to know.  There was no need to know the trauma or traumas scattered in the past.  Only one thing mattered: the traumas to come.
