"Changing quickly from alevins to fry (fingerlings) to smolt, the babies head tail-first toward the ocean, backing through the mirror into the future so they'll know what it looks like when they see it head-on. Navigating backward out to sea, they eat their parents' flesh, the giant, knife-toothed, blade fisted, humpbacked muscle-monsters that grew and grew from and into them."


From Incarnate: Story Material (New Directions, 2004) p. 71
