Confession


[Sea - Petra Börner]

"--who can you talk to but a man on the way out? He'd worked in intelligence for only six years, but he would have liked to crawl out of its waters and into a cave and confess to some giant mollusk. Absurd, yes. But it had the right elements. Air and drowning. Darkness, damp."

-Denis Johnson, Tree of Smoke
