there were n't that many that i saw when we were actually in there , and some of those had fallen apart , but in my dreams it seems like there are thousands , wall to wall skulls sticking up round like eggs in a carton , and they are all grinning just like the little one was grinning when his dad picked him up , and in their eyesockets i see little red flecks dancing around , like embers rising from a wildfire .
