Careful
The children are warned against reaching into drains: “You’ll lose a finger down there if you’re not careful.” She has always been careful. Sometimes, she hears them moving within the culvert; blindly reaching out with long arms and many-fingered hands - fingers stolen from the children who did not listen.
