“You want to fall, that's all. You think it can't go on like that. It's as if your life is a perch on the edge of a cliff and going forward seems impossible, not for a lack of will, but a lack of space. The possibility of another day stands in defiance of the laws of physics. And you can't go back. So you want to fall, let go, give up, but you can't. And every breath you take reminds you of that fact. So it goes.”
― Kevin Powers, The Yellow Birds

“She revered solitude, but only because there was the possibility of breaking it. Of communing at last with another.”
― Amanda Coplin, The Orchardist

“Once a man offered me his heart and I said no. Not because I didn’t love him. Not because he was a beast or white â€� I couldn’t love him. Do you understand? In bed while we slept, our bodies inches apart, the dark between our flesh a wick. It was burning down. And he couldn’t feel it.”
― Eduardo C. Corral, Slow Lightning (Volume 106)

“Just because a thing can't be done doesn't mean it can't be did. We all look into mirrors and see phantoms. Our error is our Eros. Why is there something instead of nothing? The answer is reckless and surreal.”
― Dean Young, The Art of Recklessness: Poetry as Assertive Force and Contradiction
