Duly Quoted


Language is a skin: I rub my language against the other. It is as if I had words instead of fingers, or fingers at the tip of my words. My language trembles with desire.

dirt for filling in a swimming pool

I think I’ll be back blogging tomorrow.

Think of how good all that shoveling is for your character. I always enjoy watching men at work and look forward to photos of the completed garden.
