“She touches me The jungle lights up with incinerating fireLooks like a flaming serpentI look into her eyesI see a movie flickering Car crashes People kicking corpsesMen ripping their tracheas out and shaking them at the skyI think to myself:I don’t want to survive this oneI want to burn up in the wreckageCooking flesh in the jungle”

Just have something in there.”

“She liked me because she said that we both hated everything and knew that friendship was an act of desperation. She said that for a man I was alright.

She said that they should go on sale for women to hang off their rearview mirrors.”
