[On depressed lovers] I remember how you told me once that in the thesaurus, a synonym for “the world” is dust. It takes you twice as long to fill the tea kettle. Water sloshing over the side, pouring over the cold metal, and you tell me, “I would be a pianist if I had steady hands.” You wake up beside me, with your head in your hands, your battered knees shaking and you ask me, “Since when are the nights so long?” I come home one day, you are crying on the floor. And you are doused in gasoline and your hair is soaked in oil and you tell me, “I couldn’t find a match.”
