William S. Burroughs - My Education, A Book of Dreams

"I walk out into bright and silver moonlight , searing moonlight, the light of Margaras the White Cat. All hidden things are revealed in the light of the hunting cat. To my left I see harlequin figures clear and sharp in the white light.
Who is the ghost in the front room? How can I distance myself and confront it?"
