Joan Didion Quotes
He Ran His Fingers Over The Moist Ends Of Her Hair And Across Her Face. Her Eyes Were Wet. Jesus Christ. How Many Nights Had He Heard Lily Crying. As Some Parents Sleep Through Fire, Thunderstorms, And Voices At The Back Door Only To Wake At A Child's Whisper, So Everett Heard Lily Crying At Night. Her Muffled Sobs Seemed To Have Broken His Dreams For Years. He Had Heard Her Even At Fort Lewis, Even In Georgia, Finally At Bliss. That Was Lily Crying In The Wings Whenever The Priest Came To Tear Up His Mother's Grave. Lily Cried In The Twilight Field Where He Picked Wild Poppies With Martha; Lily's Was The Cry He Heard Those Nights The Kiln Burned, The Levee Broke, The Ranch Went To Nothing.
