Scriabin Piano Sonatas

picture a gender-free, upright-walking, sentient, mammal (GFUWSM). picture it walking from sea-to-shining-sea, meeting others of its kind. for every rudeness, for every discourtesy, for every oppressive act it witnesses or hears about, a weasel sinks it's teeth into the flesh of our GFUWSM. none will let go, till eventually our GFUWSM is weighed down and disappears under a coat of weasels who then disembowel our GFUWSM. That's what any of this could be about.
