of touching. There, just below the third rib on the left side. No
fingers other than my own have ever known this shallow dip and curve.
Here, I am still young, green and full
of potential.
Here, I am still a mystery


bowing outSince there is no longer hope I would like to end this by brisk handshake. Lovers? Once. Friends? No time soon. Friendly? Well, love, that remains to be seen. Here is my hand,bowing out

BabelLook at how you labor!Babel
Your lips twist, open stutter-stutter, gurgle, and then sever, gnaw off the end. Spit flicks, and your tongue
rolls while my palms clench and
sweat, leave their imprints as I bruise them
on the table.
Stop it! You make no sense!
