Quotes
edit- But you were brushing out your hair
and singing to yourself.
And, for a moment, I think I saw
what those artists saw —
someone half in love with herself
and half in love with the world.- "January 18, 1979" lines 7-12, Corpse and Mirror, Henry Holt, 1983
- Why isn't there more meat on this chicken
It's as if the damned thing began starving itself
once it knew what the future had in store for it
