1. The doctors spent ten years working on flower arrangements in the boned vase that held up her brain. When she came out, you could see through her skin to the frozen pipes. Her fingernails were green boats beached into their mossed beds. At the movie premiere, she dragged a leg behind her. Walked on the side of her ankle in front of the photographers. Frances! they'd clamor, Tell your fans how you keep such a trim figure! Her eyes cooked like the fresh campfires of convicts on the run. Everyone loved her new hairstyle-- two oiled fish skins parted down the middle. Frances! Tell us what you've been up to all these years! What was it like to work with Tyrone Power? Frances opened her mouth to answer A bug crawled out, fell to the ground and burrowed right back into a hole in her foot. The paparazzi followed her every move, taking shots of liquid she'd leave behind. They loved the beads of blood she wore down her neck. The yellow diamonds crusted in her eyes. The tie-dye trend of immortal death. To die forever. After an embrace, her lover found himself leaning down to pick up all her bones off the ground.

Amber Tamblyn, from “Frances Farmer” (as appears in Dark Sparkler)

We are so high, the moon is in your mouth, it's hard to articulate your mourning. Grief tugs in all directions on each tooth. Your knees touch like the foreheads of sole surviving siblings.
