<div style="text-align: center;">
pupils spark turned upwards </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
blinking blind from fire to sky</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a scintilla</div>

a meteor</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
piles of dead insects</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
blast-away motes </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cautious in the cateye</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hallowed holes for cantankerous crabs </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a daring blink and the universe will skip us</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so here you slide your hand up my thigh </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the polyester sleeping bag swishes around us</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a whispering windstorm amid giggles and burps</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we seek fall and find instead </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
rain</div>

My neighbor has not played clarinet for weeks—there were no sounds, there was no
music. A drought of music. A curse of lingering, stagnation, with no sign—no
promise—just the emptiness like a blank, opaque circle—and I was at the center
of it-- </div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Until today. I can
breathe again—finally free from the weighted responsibility of suspense.
Momentarily. </div>

The swan has
returned. </div>

</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times;">it seems like we've spent most of our time together in the woods. in the darkness, on an unkempt path, twisting our ankles on unseen obstacles. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times;">i watch this moment over and over, setting us in different times of day & night, at dawn & dusk. And sometimes there are birds, lots of birds, yelling at me a cacophony of warnings: please, turn back.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times;">and each time i replay the scene, it seems more obvious it was always a mistake. never should have taken those timid first steps. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times;">now the protagonist of this memory doesn't know what to do. i have the knowledge she couldn't have possibly seen--and despite the obvious warnings from the birds, it's still too tempting. the loam smells clean. the pregnant possibilities seem promising. Seem.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times;">her partner stands frozen beside her. she stares at him with knotted eyebrows like she's trying to figure out the puzzle. she's trying to decode the pictographs, exaggerated by shadows, carved into his features. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times;">i guess she'll never know how deceptively perfect it was. in the moment, it seemed, they could be shoulder-to-shoulder forever. she'll never know better. but i do.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Times;">he doesn't actually think you're beautiful, or sexy, or lovely, or interesting. they're lies. i don't know whether or not she could be convinced of that. she'd have to find out for herself. but i don't let her plow forward into the decaying quagmire of a once too-good-to-be-true promise. she can stay there, staring a his face made morbid by the moonlight, half-believing she's "in love."</span> <br />

The first touch, the first flicker of electricity, the pause and the temptation.<br />
Exploring, rushing, guessing; finding with your hands the goosebumps, the plains, the plumes. A first kiss, a first time, a first: fresh, fleeting, tightening and releasing.<br />
<br />
I realized it just one day, casually--<br />
pushing the hair out of my face, looking down to the ground, surrounded by people with whom my voice is too quiet and I am just not good enough--<br />
<br />
I produce smiles for you and I fuck for you.<br />
<br />
The the newness is there beneath the skin, the layer on top of everything, the mountain of emotion, and pressure and tension and fear--I am scared, too.<br />
<br />
I think about the first time for someone else, not for me. The first time and the earthquake that follows. The ocean that spills from their eyes. The ocean that creeps up around us. Our epidermis against the meniscus.<br />
<br />
We are two sea monsters and we're waiting for the moon.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
