5/30

this is something i've been working on for a while. no verbs.


first time

The crickets shuddering secrets and the weight of every summer, with a voice a harsh whisper like a kicked and broken dog. And her dry throat, the only remains of the havoc of stale pollen off withered grass.

Under a sharp summer sky all dewy damp and too few stars. Her heaving pale cotton wraped body in an unruffled dress on the hood of a red chevy. And hard horny thighs and patient playing fingers.

She and the long tunnel of the moon, the distant cities of stars. Unsatisfied fingers and a ruffled white dress, but no whimper no moan.
