8:51 am	@@@@@“Besides, we've got plenty of time to… @@@@@“Besides, we've got plenty of time to… think about this Stalling again, I suspect“Do you realize how very, very little time we've been together so far? It's been just four weeks since we found each otherIt's not possible that it has been only twenty-nine days since Jared changed our livesIt seems like Jamie and I have been with Jared every bit as long as we were aloneTwo or three years, maybe “We've got time,” Jared says again An abrupt panic, like a warning premonition, makes it impossible for me to speak for a long momentHe watches the change on my face with worried eyes “You don't know that The despair that softened when he found me strikes like the lash of a whip“You can't know how much time we'll haveYou don't know if we should be counting in months or days or hours He laughs a warm laugh, touching his lips to the tense place where my eyebrows pull togetherMiracles don't work that wayI'll never let you get away from me She brought me back to the present–to the thin ribbon of the highway winding through the Arizona wasteland, baking under the fierce noon sun–without my choosing to returnI stared at the empty place ahead and felt the empty place inside Her thought sighed faintly in my head:You never know how much time you'll have The tears I was crying belonged to both of us CHAPTER 9 Discovered Idrove quickly through the I-10 junction as the sun fell behind meI didn't see much besides the white and yellow lines on the pavement, and the occasional big green sign pointing me farther east I wasn't sure exactly what I was in a hurryfor, thoughTo be out of this, I supposedOut of pain, out of sadness, out of aching for lost and hopeless loves (Comment on this)

12:35 pm	@@@@@Maybe it didn't matterWhen it comes to @@@@@Maybe it didn't matterWhen it comes to things like pictures, it's always just someone's opinion, isn't it? I only knew that something was going on for meSometimes it felt a little scaryMostly it felt pretty goddam wonderful I did most of my drawing upstairs, in the room I'd come to think of as Little PinkThe only view from there was of the Gulf and that flat horizonline, but I had a digital camera and I took pictures of other things sometimes, printed them out, clipped them to my easel (which Jack and I turned so the strong afternoon light would strike across the paper), and drew that stuffThere was no rhyme or reason to those snapshots, although when I told Kamen this in an e-mail, he responded that the unconscious mind writes poetry if it's left alone 108 I drew my mailboxI drew the stuff growing around Big Pink, then had Jack buy me a book - Common Plants of the Florida Coast - so I could put names to my picturesNaming seemed to help - to add power, somehowBy then I was on my second box of colored pencilsand I had a third waiting in the wingsThere was aloe vera; sea lavender with its bursts of tiny yellow flowers (each possessing a tiny heart of deepest violet); inkberry with its long spade-shaped leaves; and my favorite, sophora, which Common Plants of the Florida Coast also identified as necklace-bush, for the tiny podlike necklaces that grow on its branchesThere were shells everywhere, an eternity of shells just within my limited walking distanceDuma Key was made of shells, and soon I'd brought back dozens And almost every night when the sun went down, I drew the sunsetI knew sunsets were a cliché, and that's why I did themIt seemed to me that if I could break through that wall of been-there-donethat even once, I might be getting somewhereSo I piled up picture after picture, and none of them looked like muchI tried overlaying Venus Yellow 109 with Venus Orange again, but subsequent efforts didn't workThe sullen furnace-glow was always missingEach sunset was only a penciled piece of shit where the colors said I'm trying to tell you the horizon's on fireYou could undoubtedly have bought forty better ones at any sidewalk art show on a Saturday in Sarasota or Venice BeachI saved some of those drawings, but I was so disgusted with most of them that I threw them away One evening after another bunch of failures, once again watching the top arc of the sun disappear, leaving that flush of Halloween color trailing behind, I thought: It was the (Comment on this)
8:42 am	@@@@@ Even with my palm over one ear, it ripped @@@@@ Even with my palm over one ear, it ripped through my headI thought I heard Wireman yell, but I wasn't sure Jack pushed the power button again and the hellish blizzard of noise cut out"I think we should skip the tunes," he said "Wireman? All right?" My voice seemed to be coming from far away, through a steady low ringing noise ix Jack might have made it a little way beyond the point where Ilse got sick; maybe notIt was hard to tell once the growth got highThe road narrowed to a stripe, its surface humped and buckled by the roots running beneath itThe foliage had interlaced above us, blotting out most of the skyIt was like being in a living tunnel 936 The windows were rolled up, but even so, the car was filling with a green and fecund jungle smell Jack tested the old Mercedes's springs on a particularly egregious pothole, thumped up over a ridge in the pavement on the far side, then slammed to a stop and put the transmission in PARK "I'm sorry," he saidHis mouth was quivering and his eyes were too big"I'm-" I knew perfectly well what he was Jack fumbled open the door, leaned out, and vomitedI'd thought the smell of the jungle (that's what it was once you were a mile past El Palacio) was strong in the car, but what came rolling in with the door open was ten times headier, thick and green and viciously aliveYet I did not hear a single bird calling in that mass of junk foliageThe only sound was Jack losing his breakfastAt last he collapsed back against the seatHe thought I looked like a snowbird again? That was sort of funny, because on that early afternoon in mid-April, Jack Cantori was as pale as March in MinnesotaInstead of twenty-one, he looked a sickly forty-fiveIt must have been 937 the tuna salad, Ilse had said, but it hadn't been the tunaSomething from the sea, all right, but not the tuna "I'm sorry," he said (Comment on this)
