Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, page 11
it is a mistake to think our impulses are bad
desire is something which makes by directing the instincts
this will not
make us into devils
Desolation Angels by Jack Kerouac, page 8
it was schoolboys in scuffed shoes here in desolation the shaking rafters of the earth
waiting for descent far to the south my intended senoritas
wait for when I ride all raveled and pink the pastel oranges, greens, blues
auguries of her makeup their makeup weigh me like the wind
