Michael Gira Quotes

When My Sister Was Released From The Mental Hospital, She Came To Live With Me In The Tilting And Crumbling One-bedroom House I'd Bought With The Small Amount Of Money I Inherited When Our Parents Died. She Arrived One Afternoon Unannounced In A Taxi. She Must Have Known Instinctively That I'd Take Her In. I Don't Know How Or Why They Released Her. Probably Due To Overcrowding, And They Had Her Scratch Her Name On A Form Then Pushed Her Out The Door. Or Maybe She Just Slipped Away When No One Was Looking (who'd Notice In A Place Like That?)
she Never Did Tell Me And I Didn't Ask Her. I Was So Happy To Have Her With Me Again That The Last Thing I Wanted To Do Was Break The Spell By Letting Reality Intrude. Ever Since They'd Dragged Her Away Weeping With Laughter And Reaching Out For Me With Our Parents' Blood Still Coating Her Hands With Shiny Red Gloves, I'd Felt Amputated, Like They'd Pulled Her Kicking And Screaming And Insane Out Of My Guts.
