I finished Geek Love.
LIKE LILITH IN THE GARDEN, I STEAL FRUIT FROM EVERY TREE. HE SPITS SEEDS IN THE DIRT AFTER US, EXPLAINING WHY WE ARE OWED WHAT WE TAKE AND I LISTEN CROSS-LEGGED. EVERY APPLE IS ANOTHER LOVER WHO FORGOT US. EVERY EVE'S ANOTHER GIRL TOO PRETTY TO APPROACH. EVERYONE WANTS TO BE LOVED, HE SAYS. EVEN THE UGLY WANT TO BE SAVED.
SOME DAY THERE'LL BE THE BOY WITH A SOUL SO BIG HE GREW MORE BONES TO HOLD IT.
the people I have been keeping up with lately depress me; they are accomplished and published and very probably beautiful.
