• You always fed strays and bent down to talk to the dogs you met on the street, looking straight into their eyes as if they were old friends. (Maybe they are, you said. From another life.) You liked to go to the pound and look at them. You tried to send them messages of comfort. I couldn’t go because I started crying the one time I tried. All those eyes and the barks like sobs.

• El amor puede transformarnos. Puede ser una fuerza curativa o un desastre, un maremoto, un tornado. Puede quemarnos y dejarnos cicatrices o curarlas. Puede ser el fantasma que nos persigue o el mejor amigo que lee cada uno de nuestros pensamientos. El amor puede llegar como un ángel de la misericordia, un hada con alas de cuervo o una bestia peluda que nos despedazará miembro a miembro, nos matará y saboreará hasta los huesos.

• Here you go on this long long dream. Don't even try to wake up. Just let it go on until it is over. You will learn many things.

• You were just a boy on a bed in a room, like a kaleidoscope is a tube full of bits of broken glass. But the way I saw you was pieces refracting the light, shifting into an infinite universe of flowers and rainbows and insects and planets, magical dividing cells, pictures no one else knew.

• Nothing happened. And everything did. Your whole life you can be told something is wrong and so you believe it. Why should you question it? But then slowly seeds are planted inside of you, one by one, by a touch or a look or a day skateboarding in a park, and they start to burst out of old hulls shells and they start to sprout. And pretty soon there are so many of them. They are named Love and Trust and Kindness and Joy and Desire and Wonder and Spirit and Soulmate. They grow into a garden so dense and thick that it starts to invade your brain where the old things you were once told are dying.

  Soulmate, Kindness, Believe

• Un beso sobre tarta de manzana a la mode con la cremosidad de la vainilla fundiéndose en el calor de la tarta. Un beso sobre chocolate, cuando no has comido chocolate en un año. Un beso sobre las palmeras que pasan a toda velocidad, arrastrando nubes rosas cuando conduces por el Strip chisporroteando champán. Un beso sobre focos abanicando el cielo y el mar hinchado derramándose como lágrimas sobre tus piernas.

• Sometimes she has imagined what it would be like to fly, to live in the river, to run like a horse. She has dreamed of that freedom, that power, and fears the wildness in herself that wants to live as beasts live, moved purely by need and desire. She has felt torn between the heat of her limbs and the thoughts in her mind telling her to be careful and good and always calm. Don't scream or cry, don't run to him and throw yourself at his feet, pleading for him to take you in his arms, don't strip off your clothes and run naked to the water, wild with wanting.

• Tal vez una noche esté dormido y sienta una mano como una paloma en mi pómulo y sienta su aliento fresco como la menta y cuando abra los ojos mi madre estará allí como un ángulo, diciendo con la voz más suave, Cuando naces es como un sueño largo, largo.
