“You The lines of your neck. The slope down to your shoulders. The unsteady blue welt of veins at your wrists, a sluggish estuary pounding into your fingers. Lungs that were once stars heaving air in and feet that are still walking despite it all dragging through the dust. You: A miracle with a smile like skies. A universe wearing human skin.”

“Did you know people get rich off of sadness? I want to meet the millionaire of American sadness. I want to look him in the eye, shake his hand, and say, 'it's been an honor to serve my country.”

“I could do it. I could rip your life out like a fury, like a beast.
I could stand over you with my red hands
and lap the heart out of your hollow chest.
I'm a wolf, I'm a woman, I'm a building hurricane.
I'm whole-way sharp teeth, soul-sick wet claws.
I say "love me," and you say, "you're killing me."
I say, "i'd die for you," and you say," You'd kill for me—that's not the same thing.”
