Quotes by Caitlin Scarano (?)

“Don't touch the inside of his wrist. Take it back-your hand, your fingers. Remove them from his mouth. Do not write of the antlers you found in the birch grove. Do not think of their bodilessness, or who did the consuming. Do not name the animal you never saw.”
― Caitlin Scarano, Do Not Bring Him Water

“Know that you will always be hungry, that he will always leave you hungry. Know that he will mistake this hunger for anger and grow to fear you like a serpent wrapped around his bedpost. You will always be the one to do what needs to be done; the leaving will be no different.”
