He is half of my soul, as the poets say.

[musings @musingsbot]

In life, I left Achilles. And in death, he left me. We're even. And we've nothing left to say to one another, now.

[musings @musingsbot]

We discussed things. We were married, we said things. We talked about moving to Europe, about getting a sideboard or what do you call it, a credenza, to fill that empty space behind the couch. We never did any of it.

[musings @musingsbot]

The first time I tasted somebody else's spit, I had a coughing fit.

[musings @musingsbot]

Enjoy my jacket, which you stole.

[musings @musingsbot]

[musings @musingsbot]

Everything’s that good to you ain’t always good for you.
