"You say keep it real, but mean the last gasp of reality before it goes six deep, like the last bubbles bursting from a drowning man. It no longer matters whether "real" really means real or phony, or virtual, or normal as usual or any old shit.

You either take it or it takes you. If you leave it, you're dead, which is real for keeps." from Jean-Marie Clarke, Urban Myths Die the Hardest, Ballymore, Ire. 2006.
