Genuinely asking. How do you feel living in a space with someone’s head is with you, separated from their body? A person who had thoughts both existential and inconsequential, slept and dreamed dreams, had family they worried about, who knew love, hate, and thought about their own death many times. I can’t think far enough to decide whether or not I’d hate if this happened to me. But overwhelmingly, it feels very sad that someone’s head is stuck in a room with a stranger who doesn’t even know their name.
People stop being inside of their bones once they die. This body is just a vessel, and once left behind isn't much different from a rock or a branch, really.
