“WHAT! so is the yggdrasil poem in the back! bookended by pelafina? so okay, there we go, lets stew on that. anyhow, i'm going to work now; jenny asked me all nice. & i gotta give into her when she's nice. right? be stubborn when she is mean in theory & pliant when she is nice. really i'm just suggestable any which way, but i like to pretend to have some kind of agenda. oh angel! i've got a secret today. all that cake! all those texans! don't touch the thermostat!”
“I'M what's eating gilbert grape. hello morning, i am a sieve. drain right through me, gleaming like an ocean held under the microscope of the moon. i need to invoke the totem of the spider. at least spiders have webs to anchor them to the world. instead i'm all a-lurk in the roots of yggdrasil tzuk te, haunting this world from the heart of the dream. which is all inside out; i'm supposed to be monolith side, pressed up against the glass of the firmament. i feel like i'm filled with rusty bones, scraping against each other like fingernails on slate.”
