When I say I lack feeling, you know that I mean I lack the capacity to feel, and this is a spiritual not a bodily failing. --Art and Lies

The Sea of Tears

Here is the bad thing about me writing down my life: "The only way to write anything is to get to a point of such desperation that the feelings inside feel trapped and burst forth and suddenly you feel my pain and you live through me and cry through me and sob through me and love through me, and then it is on paper and then you, reader, come and read it, and eat it, you eat my soul and you think nothing of it, you move on in your life but I'm in you. And you move on. I could be a plumber and be free. I could be a clerk in a grocery store and you would never consume me this way."
