Halloween means that young girls dress up in highly sexualized outfits that would never be acceptable if it weren't Halloween.

I think it's a huge shortcoming of mine - this disconnect between the world of human and animals. We are animals.

I have a longing for wilderness and for greenness. I wish I were a person who longed for animals, but I'm not.

I do not like it when other people dress up. I like everyone to be THEMSELVES.

Penises are literally all around me all the time, and have a lot of influence on the world, on my world.

I like the way the prose and poetry interact.

I almost never do free writing. Unless I am forcing my students to do it.
