As he read Geryon could feel something like tons of black magma boiling up
from the deeper regions of him.
He moved his eyes back to the beginning of the page and started again.

is to deny the existence of mystery. The soul which does so will one day go mad."

"What is a quote? A quote (cognate with quota) is a cut, a section, a slice of someone else's orange. You suck the slice, toss the rind, skate away. Part of what you enjoy as a documentary technique is the sense of banditry. To loot someone else's life or sentences and make off with a point of view, which is called 'objective' because you can make anything into an object by treating it this way, is exciting and dangerous. Let us see who controls the danger."

"His mother stood at the ironing board lighting a cigarette and regarding Geryon.
Outside the dark pink air
was already hot and alive with cries. Time to go to school, she said for the third time.
Her cool voice floated
over a pile of fresh tea towels and across the shadowy kitchen to where Geryon stood
at the screen door.
He would remember when he was past forty the dusty almost medieval smell
of the screen itself as it
pressed its grid onto his face. She was behind him now. This would be hard
for you if you were weak
but you're not weak, she said and neatened his little red wings and pushed him
out the door."

Geryon sat on his bed in the hotel room pondering the cracks and fissures
of his inner life. It may happen
that the exit of a volcanic vent is blocked by a plug of rock, forcing
molten matter sideways along
lateral fissures called fire lips by vulcanologists. Yet Geryon did not want
to become one of those people
who think of nothing but their stores of pain. He bent over the book on his knees.
Philosophic Problems.
"…I will never know how you see red and you will never know how I see it.
But this separation of consciousness
is recognized only after a failure of communication, and our first movement is
to believe in an undivided being between us…"

Woohoo!
I took it apart and cleaned it (sorry no pics of that - my hands were scary and there's no way I was going near my camera with them!) and got the gunk out of the uplift cams that was causing one to stick (I figured out that's why dropped stitches on my first attempt).
