The Cusp

Fragment: To the Bone
I'm talking with some guy who has no flesh on his arm starting a little above his elbow. It's just a nasty gash of exposed meat followed by bare bone. After awhile, I notice I have the same kind of injury, only I have a little flap of tissue dangling by a thread that looks like bacon. I try to rip it off, but that just pulls out more tissue, muscle and sinew from inside my gaping wound.
