Too cold\n\nAnd raining out.\n\n  \n\nHow are\n\nYou?\n\nI'm good.\n\nBathroom's behind you.\n\nI'll just uncover\n\nThe bed.\n\n  \n\nBedspread and\n\nBlanket on the floor\n\nFlat sheet over\n\nFitted.\n\nHere's a pillow for you.\n\n  \n\nUndress and\n\nJoin me\n\nHere. Let me\n\nHold this\n\nBody to me\n\nFeel your stomach,\n\nKiss your neck,\n\nTouch you.\n\n  \n\nAre you\n\nReady?\n\nOpen up. Let me\n\nInside. Deep\n\nWithin you, let me\n\nSearch\n\nFar and wide\n\nUntil I find the\n\nSpace\n\nWhere the\n\nSounds you make\n\nEcho through\n\nYour body. Shaking,\n\nI close my eyes\n\nSeeing colors that\n\nDon't exist.\n\n  \n\nDrowning,\n\nLet me cling\n\nTo you. Drift away\n\nIn this bed. Safe,\n\nYou're warm and\n\nClose...\n\n  \n\nThat's enough. A smile,\n\nA bottle of water, and\n\nI'll see you next week.\n\nTake care.\n\n  \n\nI pull off the pillowcases and the flat from fitted linen.\n\nCarry them in my arms down the hall and through the kitchen\n\nAnd laundry room to separate and gently set each piece in\n\n  \n\nThe washer. Small load, cold water, some solvent and softener.\n\nThe dryer. Two sheets, high heat, twist chronometer.\n\n  \n\nFresh sheets.\n\n  \n\nThe flat sheet flows\n\nOnto my mattress.\n\nWith a wave I erase\n\nThe wrinkles\n\nAnd dive inside.\n\nWith mink blanket\n\nAnd comforter from closet\n\nI cover me.\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Poetry","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1380843-leviathan.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1386756-mirror-s-lament.json"}}
