I deserve that, don't I, some sort of blazing love that I can live with.
Well, I know now. I know a little more how much a simple thing like a snowfall can mean to a person
I am terrified by this dark thing that sleeps in me.
Spiderlike, I spin mirrors, Loyal to my image.
I know the bottom, she says. I know it with my great tap root: It is what you fear. I do not fear it: I have been there.
I took a deep breath and listened to the old bray of my heart. I am. I am. I am.
