"I turned towards the Pan Pub & Bacchus Bar, where oblivion was an item on the drinks list."

"Over Akrotiri, wisps of her image now streak the evening sky like lines of haiku."
Steven Spire

"I watch her now: how she takes the cup to her lips, how she swallows, how her eyebrows move as she reacts to sensation. I watch the fly that will not leave her alone, like Krikri metamorphosed. Always there is something beyond our control as a commentary on our limitations, something not anticipated in the perfect design of a scene, something not included on the menu, a doubt with dark, diaphanous wings."
