I will go," he said. "I will go to Troy."
The rosy gleam of his lip, the fevered green of his eyes. There was not a line anywhere on his face, nothing creased or graying; all crisp. He was spring, golden and bright. Envious death would drink his blood, and grow young again.

frozen in lake ice.

and the old bear dreams,
the parapet of memory burns to the ground
taking heaven with it. — Mark Z. Danielewski
