One thought on “Anatomy & Physiology”

  1. How funny. I actually own this book. But I have been tearing pages out to make slap dash things from them.

    Melancholy is beautiful, as long as you transmute from it. Or else it becomes self-stabilizing. And such a static self is false.

    I worry whether your dark night is becoming too dark, too long…. I could be projecting. XO
