Look, Miette's bored. This makes him a hundred thousand times more hazardous to life than he is normally, because it always becomes someone else's problem.

It felt weird to be in this hallowed place, far from hallowed as he was and could be;

idk if 'weird' sounds better than 'improper' [which is what i had @ first]

i finished up mysterious skin & it left me pretty miserable (in the positive sense) 

Perhaps I should try writing another poem, I thought. I wanted to create something profound, something generations of people would read, nod, whisper, I know exactly what he felt.



×××

I look up at the blue light that floods everywhere, waterfalls of blue, and I know the boy’s hand is reaching for me, the alien’s hand is reaching for me, but I won’t look at them, I only look at the light, because the light is blinding me, and I want to be blinded.



×××



My voice had elevated, becoming something I no longer possessed. And the words kept coming:


×××



If we were stars in the latest Hollywood blockbuster, then I would have embraced him, my hands patting his shoulderblades, violins and cellos billowing on the soundtrack as tears streamed down our faces. But Hollywood would never make a movie about us.

×××

It was a light that shone over our faces, our wounds and scars. It was a light so brilliant and white it could have been beamed from heaven, and Brian and I could have been angels, basking in it. But it wasn’t, and we weren’t.

rhys smiles, and cosette gets a feeling -- gets a knowing -- that she is being lied to.

but cosette, already falling, simply wishes to fall further.

picking thru random poems again. here's something by marina tsvetaeva
I’d like to live with You
In a small town,
Where there are eternal twilights
And eternal bells.
And in a small village inn —
The faint chime
Of ancient clocks — like droplets of time.
And sometimes, in the evenings, from some garret —
A flute,
And the flautist himself in the window.
And big tulips in the window-sills.
And maybe, You would not even love me…
(x)
