“My Christian friends, in bonds of love, whose hearts in sweetest union join,

Yet when I see that we must part, You draw like cords around my heart.”

The French city ... had represented the opium stage of the addiction. With the Americans had begun the heroin phase.”

An in-between time,
The landscape still partly brown:
The bones of weeds kept swinging in the wind,
Above the blue snow.”
