Aliya Whiteley Quotes

My Name Is Nathan, Just Twenty-three And Given To The Curation Of Stories. I Listen, Retain, Then Polish And Release Them Over The Fire At Night, When The Others Hush And Lean Forward In Their Desire To Hear Of The Past. They Crave Romance, Particularly When Autumn Sets In And Cold Nights Await Them, And So I Speak Of Alice, And Bethany, And Sarah, And Val, And Other Dead Women Who All Once Had Lustrous Hair And Never A Bad Word On Their Plump Lips. I Can Remember This Is Not How They Were; I Knew Them, I Knew Them! Only Six Years Have Passed And Yet I Mythologize Them As If It Is Six Thousand. I Am Not Culpable. Language Is Changing, Like The Earth, Like The Sea. We Live In Lonely, Fateful Flux, Outnumbered And Outgrown.
