Language Quote by Teresa Fleischer
““Winds move but why must I... in this progression, is there really progress, to lay my words in slamming pronunciations to splatter here on this margin or orientation do they become more green or smeared because I want to have them known, because I want to have them known and worn by mouths and hands, to have you speak them and shuffle them around uncertain. I think it is all unrelated and fickle. What is not complex and involved rambling and winding, why should it be written down here… Copyright © 2013 Teresa Fleischer. All rights reserved.””
