“Creep away, sneak away, leak away-hide.
There are animals hunting in Furber’s insides.
What will they find there? What will they eat?
Lungs, liver, the kidneys, and watery meat.” - #williamhgass #omensettersluck #currentread #gass #williamgass

"The secret of life is paying absolute attention to what is going on. The enemy of life is distraction. If you're not present in the present, where the hell are you?"
