Bella fica! (beautiful fig, fine sex) the whore said in the back streets of Livorno, proudly slapping her groin when the man tried to get the price down. Braddock, the heavyweight champion of the world, when Joe Louis was destroying him, blood spraying and his manager between rounds wanting to stop the fight, said, I won the title in the ring, I'm going to lose it in the ring. And, after more damage, did. Therefore does the wind keep blowing that holds this great Earth in the air. For this the birds sing sometimes without purpose. We value the soiled old theaters because of what sometimes happens there. Berlin in the Thirties. There were flowers all around Jesus in his agony at Gethsemane. The Lord sees everything, and sees that it is good despite everything. The manger was filthy. The women at Dachau knew they were about to be gassed when they pushed back the Nazi guard who wanted to die with them, saying he must live. And sang for a little while after the doors closed. |
