White Noise
by
It was the time of year, the time of day, for a small insistent sadness to pass into the texture of things.
“That is the thing about films. They don't change. You change. The immutability of the film (or a book or a painting or a piece of music) is something to measure yourself against. That is one of the things a great work of art does. It stays there waiting for you to come back to it, and it shows you who you are now, each time a little different.”

“Why are people so fucked up?” I asked
“Maybe you do need college, Poiter,” Everett said. “You want to know why people are so fucked up? Son, that’s about the only question I can answer with even a small measure of authority. It’s because they’re people. People, my friend, are worse than anybody.”

“Se la neve è silenzio che scende dal cielo, la pioggia forse è un'interminabile catena di frasi.
Parole che cadono sui marciapiedi, sui tetti dei palazzi di cemento, sulle pozzanghere nere, e rimbalzano.
Lettere della mia lingua madre avviluppate in gocce d'acqua nere.
Tratti dritti e rotondi, punti sfuggenti.
Virgole e interrogativi che si incurvano.”
― Greek Lessons
