'I swore to you, even back then, that this would be nothing but a faint reflection of the smallest efforts of my own mind to make a world - also to be my own. And, I need to tell you, it HAS been done.'
'You were incredibly indecorous to me; like some Walter Winchell effigy made from the coarsest stone, I stared back, merely wondering where you'd be next. In the alley, the old sieve was still leaking bad water, the oily sheen atop it ran forth towards the gutter. I thought of filth and dirt in the very same way: as something horrid, leaking from my mind. Over you, or not.'
