Analysis of Remnants
There are imprint traces
There are odds and ends
There are unfilled spaces stored by former friends
There are muffled voices
There are odds and ends
There are Hobson's choices seen in former friends
There are secret symbols
There are odds and ends
There are stable gimbals known to former friends
There are surplus pieces
There are odds and ends
There are classic creases from the former friends
There are coded ciphers
There are odds and ends
There are panache lifers judged as former friends
There are tiny remnants
There are odds and ends
There are witty implants put with former friends
