Down the Company

"It builds character."

Which character?

There is one way glass where waves pass through and bounce back to the wave itself, leading at the elbow. Before the wave was the welcome, a ribbon of arms enlaced and untwined. Before the knotted bodies turned the wheel beneath the watchtower, a mountain range slumped just an inch.

"Some sleep their time."

Sleep how?

Every morning dawns with an ache, a pang of wheresomeness and shallow water. The ankles, out of virtue, forgive the feet for being clean. Where will we sleep? In the middle of the road. Yellow as pin-stripes.
