Daniel Woodrell Quotes

MOTHER NATURE Was Laying Down Some Law Out There In The Bayou Night, And As Befits The Order Of Things, Large Feathered Creatures Dove Off High Branches, Swooped Low And Stuck Talons In Smaller Furry Meals, And Bandit-eyed Coons Came Stealthily Out Of Hollow Logs And Glommed Finned, Scaly Chow From The Still, Brackish Shallows, While All Those Things That Slither Waited, Coiled, For The Passing Appearance Of Any Prey Absentminded, And Where The Bayou Waters Butted Against Land And A Screened Porch Overlooked The Boggy Stage For These Food-chain Theatricals, Emil Jadick Sat On The Arm Of The Couch And Wrapped Up A Lecture That Had Been Real Type A In Tone And Content. He Said, And If Either Of You Fucks Up Because You Ain't Been Listenin' To Me, I'll Take You Off The Calendar Myself, Understood?
