VINCULUM
I accepted your allograph not because it was truth-telling: trust is my insignia on love. Potentate of my being. Innit? Kitchenalia is key to home. Our dupion didn’t spell this out. During a silken phase every stir leaves a line. Splitville has sharpened me with a never-ending series. It’s automagical. |
