The real secret is why love starts out with claws like a cat and then fades with time like a half-eaten mouse.

Herta Müller

You go out for a walk and the world opens up for you. And before you've even stretched your legs properly, it closes shut. For here to there it's all just the farty sputter of lantern. And they call that having lived. It's not worth the bother of putting on your shoes.
