Thanks for the critique! I love mythology - In Greek mythology, Lethe was one of the five rivers of the underworld of Hades. Also known as the River of Unmindfulness, those who drank from its waters experienced complete forgetfulness/oblivion. It has an intimate meaning to me, as I have battled drug addiction for most of my adult life.
