“Allein das Mondlicht ließ er sich gefallen. Das Mondlicht kannte keine Farben und zeichnete nur schwach die Konturen des Geländes. Es überzog das Land mit schmutzigem Grau und erdrosselte für eine Nacht lang das Leben. Diese wie in Blei gegossene Welt, in der sich nichts regte als der Wind, der manchmal wie ein Schatten über die grauen Wälder fiel, und in der nichts lebte als die Düfte der nackten Erde, war die einzige Welt, die er gelten ließ, denn sie ähnelte der Welt seiner Seele.”

“And God,
please let the deer
on the highway
get some kind of heaven.
Something with tall soft grass
and sweet reunion.
Let the moths in porch lights
go some place
with a thousand suns,
that taste like sugar
and get swallowed whole.
May the mice
in oil and glue
have forever dry, warm fur
and full bellies.
If I am killed
for simply living,
let death be kinder
than man.”

“Living happened until it didn't. There was no choice in it. To say no to a new day would be unthinkable. So each morning you said yes, then stepped into the consequence.”
