And this deid thing, whale-white obscenity, This horror that I writhe in - is my soul! --MacDiarmid, Hugh, A Drunk Man Looks at the Thistle Dream tonight of peacock tails, Diamond fields and spouter whales. Ills are many, blessing few, But dreams tonight will shelter you. --Thomas Pynchon, V. The end of my shift, dead tired, emotional. I remember when my brother and I took our little boat out beyond the jetty one day to set our crab traps. And a grey whale, browsing nearby, rose to the surface and breathed. Three times as long as our boat, she could have flipped us easily--but of course she did not. We were all just getting a meal off the bottom of the bay, together.
