“As they grow intimate the space between them during the day grows larger. She likes the distance he leaves her, the space he assumes is their right. It gives each of them a private energy, a code of air between them when he passes below her window without a word.”

“The dirt is happy and the body is happy / to be opened, after a lifetime of nail biting. It loves / the way the air filters through, like carbonation. / It feels that it cannot feel. The not-feeling is like / not-being, only more so: it is being all the way / through, nothing to get in the way.”

“Write all the things you want to do. / Ask others to do them and sleep / until they finish doing them. / Sleep as long as you can.”
