She closes the book and holds me as close as if one of us had been lost. 61 Dry Spell For months she crossed a hot dry path until her lips split and she called out for comfort.

We know night by its absences and there is no sound but the rain and the wind and the small click of your fingers as you pull in the green all around us.
