Caracas - Jeffrey McDaniel.
I wish slitting the wrist of the clock would let this moment last forever – your tongue so deep in my ear it feels like a paintbrush, coating the dark, peeling walls inside my head with a carmine veneer. I was expecting you to run, when you saw the cartilage in the closet. I was prepared to chase after and whisper you have beautiful footsteps, when the truth is you make my toes tingle like the...

Mostly I think about the hands.
I used to think about hands the way I thought about honey, how I don’t do that, how I don’t feel that way about anyone, not ever. I never used to crave honey, never liked it, and I never could explain why. It was just a feeling.
But the years fly by and I think about hands. How stupid it seems now, to have discounted such a worthwhile thing, to doubt people willing to extend their own...

But the pretzels aren't like they used to be.
I am a good guest, a good host too. I meet with all of her doctors on the fourth floor, I drink just enough wine at the cocktail party to tell the story about how Maiden Lane got its name; I don’t remember to use bug spray until it’s too late.
