"How it all came down to this, only the devil knows. Retail Rodeo was at the corner on my left...the motel was down the road to my right. I closed my eyes and tried to peer into the future. On my left I saw days upon days of lipstick and ticking clocks......dirty looks and quiet whisperings. And burning secrets that just won't ever die away. And on my right, what could I picture? The blue sky, the desert earth...stretching out into the eerie infinity. A beautiful, never-ending nothing."
