“This is the last dance, the wild tossing of Morgan’s seas,The division of spoils. A lassitudeEnters into the diamonds of the body………………………………………………………..We are returning now to the snowy treesAnd the depth of the darkness buried in snow” (2-4, 16-17).

“The substance in the bag takes on a personality of its own; it can’t be ignored. The story says that the substance locked in the bag appears one day somewhere else in the city. The substance in the bag feels angry, and when you see it, it is shaped like an ape, and moves like an ape” (Bly).

“When a certain light is ignited in the back of our heads, ghostly pictures appear on the wall in front of us”(8).

“The man who opens his bag at forty-five or the woman who opens her bag rightly feels fear. She glances up and sees the shadow of an ape passing along the alley wall…” (7).

“Our psyches then are natural projection machines; images that we stored in a can we can bring out while still rolled up, and run them for others, or on others” (9).
