You purchase pain with all that joy can give,

Watching Oprah all day so that we have something interesting

It is a thankless, exhausting job, but I do it."

She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school.
She was Dolores on the dotted line.
But in my arms she was always Lolita."

"Dog carcass in alley this morning,
tire thread on burst stomach.
This city is afraid of me.
I have seen its true face.

The streets are extended gutters
and the gutters are full of blood
and when the drains finally scab over,
all the vermin will drown.

The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder
will foam up about their waists and all the whores
and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!'... "
— Alan Moore, Watchmen
