“I shot through my twenties like a luminous thread through a dark needle, blazing toward my destination: Nowhere.”

“I don't like sewing machines. I don't understand how a needle with a thread going through the tip of it can interlock the thread by jamming itself into a little goddamn spool. It's contrary to nature and it irritates me.”

“My tears must stop, for every drop
Hinders needle and thread.”

“On my way, maybe I am looking for the destination, I am walking towards my destination by taking steps, I do not know how far, I am walking towards my destination, I do not see the way, I start thinking in the middle of the road, I keep my spirits in my life, maybe I can get my destination.”

“Waddya want me to do? through my sling shot at him?”

“Then a lightning bolt shot straight through my skivvies. Sha-ZAM!”

“I wanted my life to start - but in those rare moments when it seemed like something might actually change, panic shot through me.”

“I’ve gone through so many dark periods of my life, but my art has always been there. I firmly believe in this way of living, and I hope to die like this.”

“Five and twenty ponies
Trotting through the dark—
Brandy for the Parson,
'Baccy for the Clerk.
Them that asks no questions isn't told a lie—
Watch the wall, my darling, while the gentlemen go by!”

“He does not come.
Tonight in the dark of the moon
I wake wanting him.
My breasts heave and blaze.
My heart chars.”
