i am a great pillar of white smoke i am lot's nameless wife encased in salt i am the wound on christ's back as he moans with the pounding of a hammer on his wrist i am the nail that holds my house together it is a strong house built on a good foundation in the winter it is warm and crawling things cannot get in this house will never burn down it is the house that i built with my body and with my strength i am the only one who lives here i am both father and mother to a race of dust motes that worship me as a god i have monuments built daily in my honor in dark corners around the house i destroy all of them before i go to bed but in the morning there are still more i don't think i know where all of them are i don't think i can get to all of them anymore there are too many
