"Since then she had changed so much in her thoughts, in her ways, even in her looks, that she might wonder if she knew herself--except that the changes were all in the direction of becoming more and more herself. She was no longer afraid to like or to dislike anything too much. It was as if she had found some authority for taking what was hers and rejecting what seemed unimportant."

I have mountains in my ankles. I carry an anvil in my chest. When I have thoughts they come as bars of lead. Can I walk towards you in such a manner. With the architecture of cathedrals. A citadel in my back. I live alone in my own body. Zeppelins will flow from my mouth and then what. I know there are probably better things to be doing like lying down or rolling into the side of an ocean. A squat. Too often do I feel the gentle curve of a hammer. There it is, again, someone mistaking me for a building, a tower. A block of marble or soapstone to be gnawed into something beautiful.
