Faith is one of only two things in mankind's consciousness that defies discussion. The other is one's marriage.

It's hard to have a serious conversation with you when you're wearin' lighted cocks on your

If you behave in a manner that poisons your relationship, don__ be surprised when it dies.

And sometimes I believe your relentless analysis of June leaves something out, which is your feeling for her beyond knowledge, or in spite of knowledge. I often see how you sob over what you destroy, how you want to stop and just worship; and you do stop, and then a moment later you are at it again with a knife, like a surgeon.What will you do after you have revealed all there is to know about June? Truth. What ferocity in your quest of it. You destroy and you suffer. In some strange way I am not with you, I am against you. We are destined to hold two truths. I love you and I fight you. And you, the same. We will be stronger for it, each of us, stronger with our love and our hate. When you caricature and nail down and tear apart, I hate you. I want to answer you, not with weak or stupid poetry but with a wonder as strong as your reality. I want to fight your surgical knife with all the occult and magical forces of the world.

We are together. That means I don__ look at another woman the way I look at you. I don__ touch another woman the way I touch you. I don__ feel about any woman the way I feel about you. Got it?
