[dangermuff]

In the desert

I saw a creature, naked, bestial

Who, squatting upon the ground,

Held his heart in his hands,

And ate of it.

I said, "Is it good, friend?"

"It is bitter - bitter", he answered,

"But I like it

Because it is bitter,

And because it is my heart."

~Stephen Crane, In The Desert
