Comentario del artista:

Sara Stebbins:

This piece is written about the Handmaid's struggle against the Condesce, her ultimate defeat, and a sort of butter-tinged relief she feels from it. I wrote parts of this piece in twelve-tone, alluding to the twelve zodiac signs and the twelve numbers on a clock. I tried to keep this piece as simple as I could because I feel that the Handmaid has this silent, brooding austerity with a sense of anger within, which I tried to bring out in occasional dissonance.

Sigourney Martin:

So right away this song made me feel /really/ sad. For Handmaid I mean. She needs hugs. But yeah, this song really makes me hear and or see her pain and I suppose relief from just being away from Lord English's grasp. The jerk.
