The girl, Sarah, has no head. She has a television, always on, always glowing like a sun is always shining. She has pale white skin, the color of cooled oatmeal. When she walks she sways, an elephant lumbering down an African plain. She has deep brown hair that blows in the wind, and she wears a flowing dirty white tunic, a flag billowing in the breeze.

Can't wait to meet more of Sarah's family or learn what she does each day. You've captured her with great word pictures! Thanks! Keep writing, O talented one!
