it’s not about putting lotion on
it’s not about putting lotion on the hands it’s about drying them
pat between the fingers, I have been doing this for years
from two or three metres
or the length of two arms
the feeling of an elbow pressed
to the point where it hurts a little
because this is feeling is touching
some sort of educational resource
coucou means kissing
there are too many people to call
like before, really
I want to learn to dance
geometric
we are all learning to dance
to spit is to tear at the hair of something
of a body you didn’t know was yours
god bless the children
god bless those riding the buses
god bless us every one
to say we are the disease
is to say you never were
she only eats the first bite of a cake
she does not believe in shoes or apple cores
everyone is the protagonist of life
the streets are quiet because you are the exception
because you think you are
because you think
I can’t imagine anything ending
outside, in
I can’t get up in one go
I carry the glasses through and think about falling
the shards in me like I told my dad in the car
emergency in micro doses
I see half of my grandmother’s face and half of my grandad’s
everyone is welcome in my house for ten to sixty minutes
