“Overhead, the clouds stretch across the sky like some monstrous spiderweb, dewed with stars. Tiny planes from the Mainland whir towards the yellow moon, only to become cobwebbed by cloud.”
Karen Russell, St. Lucy's Home for Girls Raised by Wolves

Caleb Azumah Nelson
“Besides, sometimes, to resolve desire, it's better to let the thing bloom. To feel this thing, to let it catch you unaware, to hold onto the ache. What is better than believing you are heading towards love?”
Caleb Azumah Nelson, Open Water

Rita Dove
“Flirtation –

After all, there’s no need
to say anything

at first. An orange, peeled
and quartered, flares

like a tulip on a wedgwood plate.
Anything can happen.

Outside the sun
has rolled up her rugs

and night strewn salt
across the sky. My heart

is humming a tune
I haven’t heard in years!

Quiet’s cool flesh–
let’s sniff and eat it.

There are ways
to make of the moment

a topiary
so the pleasure’s in

walking through.”
Rita Dove

Brandon  Taylor
“It seemed sad that it would fade or that things had to end. When he was a child, that had depressed him. When his mother read him stories, he’d bawl at the end even if the little duck found its way back to its mother or the bears and the girl became friends or green eggs and ham were eaten. It didn’t matter if the story had a happy ending or if things turned out okay and all the scary things were put away. He hated that vertiginous feeling of things ending. That sense of the world dropping off under his feet.”
Brandon Taylor, Filthy Animals

Durga Chew-Bose
“There are so many photos I’ve never seen and questions I do not ask, because seeing them and asking them, I worry, precipitates an end.”
Durga Chew-Bose, Too Much and Not the Mood: Essays
