To wait, to pine, to fantasize, to long for the real, to long to go back to sleep, and to return to soft, secret comforts that reside in a place that only you know.
- I read from Mary Gaitskill's 2011 short story, "The Other Place", published in the February 6, 2011 New Yorker.
- I also mention Neige Sinno's "Triste Tigre" (eng translation: "Sad Tiger"), 2023, Éditions P.O.L.
- As ever jingle by my dear friend and collaborator, Roger 3000.
