That could have easily been ocean. Thrown rocks now sand again. Heat skin smooth palms. Turning over the garden. Strange and angry eagles. The fashionable break them. Toni cade fire breathing cups. Sweet falls from audre trees. Grace lee roots grow winterdeep. The m printed in your left palm. The m in your palm.
