“You know, I was born an egg, a little hard brown egg. But I cracked into a river and my insides came out and I was just about drowned and would have fallen to pieces by now were it not for him, plucking me out, saving me, I guess.”
Alone in a room of scattered pomegranates and stained walls, the ‘Blackbird’ shares the secrets of her past and the disturbing reason she’s in love with the man upstairs.
