And thus, I despise the learning that time demands, the faith that time requires, that free will requires. I wish to be only what I am. How can I be sure that I make myself what I am?

I think you felt the deadness, too, of the leftover change the first time you bought our pizza. drinks forever on the house since that first time, your cherry greased lips mouthing off about our small appetites for home and lust for later, never to be sated by now. the change…
Bookstore Encounter
And now, to meet another guy, a man of such warm charm… such a soft sweet encounter, yet flown with such nervous intensity. Where, to, now, with our realities so open and our hearts so wide. Hopefully I will come to know you, I’m glad you came back up the stairs to say hello. What a marvelous thing fate has between the two of us… we knew the very same thing as entire strangers,...
