In time's desert I feel your presence. In the rock's silence I hear your footstep. Emotion overcomes me. Then, like a sudden downpour Fear of death startles me.

How many a desert plain, wind-swept, like the surface of a shield, empty, impenetrable, have I cut through on foot, joining the near end to the far, then looking out from a summit, crouching sometimes, then standing, while mountain goats, flint-yellow, graze around me, meandering like maidens draped in flowing shawls.

Feed me the bones of our sisters, the bones we lost and found in that war — that desert where we bled and bit, that desert where we loved and hit back at the army that tore our homes like it could not tear us. So feed me the bones of our sisters — they won't know our strength, oh they won't know our teeth as we gnaw their bones to shreds and build new homes, new loves, until we are buried together woman and fox skull to skull in the sun-sweet desert.

Most witches don’t believe in gods. They know that the gods exist, of course. They even deal with them occasionally. But they don’t believe in them. They know them too well. It would be like believing in the postman.

so the moral of the story is do not hire someone to drive a thing around for you just because they have an unhealthy obsession with the type of thing you want them to drive that is not a job qualification that is a fetish.

so I guess the moral of the story is that you need to not release pyromaniacal sociopaths based solely on their own testimony because pyromaniacs are very convincing people, my friends convincing, handsome people hey does anyone have a house they’re not really using? no reason.

Seriously by the time you get three books into this every paragraph is like fifty percent proper nouns like I know you’re a linguist dude I get it I read about it on wikipedia that does not mean you have to give everything THREE NAMES DUDE DO YOU REALIZE IF EACH THING HAS THREE NAMES THERE ARE GOING TO BE THREE TIMES AS MANY NAMES AS THERE ARE THINGS WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO PUT ALL THOSE THINGS DUDE YOU ARE GOING TO NEED A WHOLE OTHER UNIVERSE AND THAT UNIVERSE IS GONNA NEED ABOUT THREE MORE NAMES
