Confess.

Ever since birth my ear canal has been a strange phenomenon. It started when I was young enough to explain. Every now and again my ear drums would perform a sort of feedback performance and my head would swell like a watermelon. The pressure and weight seemed to be too much and I would black out.

My parents said it was for nearly an hour but to me it felt like seconds.

During the blackouts I would only remember seeing weird men performing autopsy's on my brain. Except it wasn't what most would think it was. It actually ended up being normal humans with suits and ties slapping their pink, elbow high, gloves on before probing my ears. They were no aliens but their faces always seemed to be blurred out like on the show COPS.

It's still a phenomenon I can't explain especially since it only happened during my childhood.

As I got older the blackouts became nightmares, which progressed into daydreams to memories till eventually they were things of the past.

Now the only thing that triggers these things of the past are high pitched frequencies or the tolling of church bells. Only then, do I see the men, old and withered. Their blood soaked gloves replaced with IV drips hanging out of their brown spotted hands. Their faces remain anonymous but I can tell the pain they administered to my brain has eaten away at their lifespan. It has consumed their own knowledge to rot, becoming nothing but dust.

This is my confession.
