So I've been staring at this thing for daysMaybe not days maybe it's been hours. I don't but I don't know what it's for, the note says it will give him time. How does a feather do that? Is this a religious thing? Should I have sage? I've seen old vids I feel like burning anything would be a bad thing.

I appreciate the thought, really I do, but besides the sex joke... I don't understand.
