Leslie Jamison Quotes

I Walk Among The Young And Healthy And I Am More Or Less One Of Them. I Am Trying Not To Itch. I Am Trying Not To Think About Whether I'm Itching. I Am Trying Not To Take My Skin For Granted. Sometimes My Heart Beats Too Fast, Or A Worm Lodges Under The Skin Of My Ankle, Or I Drink Too Much, Or I Am Too Thin, But These Are Sojourns Away From A Kingdom I Can Generally Claim - Of Being Okay, Capable Of Desire And Being Desired, Full Of A Sense I Belong In The World. But When I Leave The Baptist Church On Slaughter Lane, I Can't Quite The Voices Of Those Who No Longer Feel They Belong Anywhere. I Spend A Day In Their Kingdom And Then Leave When I Please. It Feels Like A Betrayal To Come Up For Air.
