Better Living Through Regression

Found in a locked safe with a grey, a brown, and a tow colored hair, the letter read:

"I have lived my life in reverse. I am swimming upstream. Death was the birth of me and my second childhood was my first. I found teeth lying about that fit perfectly into my jaw. My bones grow apart then painfully snap into place. My hair changes from grey to brown and some day I will be a towheaded child. I will retract my own children, make love for the last first time, dispense with words and the alphabet, swallow my first cries and retreat to my mother’s womb. I wonder if there’s life before spermatozoic generation."
