And Simply Read
But if the body were a kind of book… Karen Fiser Imagine it as a rectangle, small enough for a hand to circle, lift from the table, slight enough to bear from chair to bath, to steady on the rim of a tub, to skim to the end of leafing ahead to the obvious while around you steam rises. Or suppose a more complicated plot, one that prods you to locate the chapter on desire, intention in the author, one you could explicate. Lay that one beside you on the bed. Let it fall open of its own accord and simply read. by Wendy Taylor Carlisle Wendy Taylor Carlisle lives in the Arkansas Ozarks.
