Denis Johnson - The traveling salesmen fed me pills that made the lining...

The traveling salesmen fed me pills that made the lining of my veins feel scraped out, my jaw ached.. I knew every raindrop by its name, I sensed everything before it happened. Like I knew a certain oldsmobile would stop even before it slowed, and by the sweet voices of the family inside, I knew we'd have an accident in the rain. I didn't care. They said they'd take me all the way.
