“Yellow and fresh are the lanterns,
Black is the road of the garden at sea.
I am very calm.
Only please, do not
Talk about him with me.
You're tender and loyal, we'll be friends.
.
Have fun, kiss, together grow old.
.
And light months above us will fly like feathers,
Like stars made of snow and as cold.”

“I wanted to explain myself to myself in an understandable way. I gave shape to my fears and made excuses. I varied my velocities, watched myselves sleep. Something's not right about what I'm doing but I'm still doing it-- living in the worst parts, ruining myself. My inner life is a sheet of black glass. If I fell through the floor I would keep falling.
The enormity of my desire disgusts me.”
