If you want a lover I'll do anything you ask. If you want a different kind of love I'll wear a mask. If you want to strike me down in anger here I stand. If you want a partner in life take my hand. I'm your man.
You have to keep cracking yourself open or you become a parody of yourself.
The big change is the proximity to death.
And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook, with the photographs there and the moths.
Anything I tell you is an alibi for something else." Then let's be quiet together.
At the very center of our culture is a crucified man, a tortured man hanging on a cross of wood. You have an image of violence at the very center of our spiritual investigation.
