“We come together,Like drops of water, like astral bodies.We oppose each other,Like magnets, like the colors of skin.”

“we are drawn to each other like drops of water, like the planets we repulse each other like magnets, like the color of our skin.”

“The northern sky, dark over the sea, is mottled with green that spreads like spilt paint… The green and white reach towards each other and then lunge away like opposing magnets forced together. I tread water, and watch.”

“The places where water comes together with other water. Those places stand out in my mind like holy places.”

“We're sistas. We treat each other like sistas. That's the blessin'. That's the problem. We come together cause we're both bein' fucked over by the same people. We get close. And then we fall in love with each other cause us third world diva gals are beautiful and blessed like none other.”

“But lost children always find each other, in the dark, in the cold. It is as though they are magnetized, and can only attract their like.”
