I slip a hand into my coat pocket.
That slickness again.
Blue.
In here, too.
On the cuff. The knee.
The heel of my shoe.
And then I catch a horrifying glimpse in the mirror.
It’s on my face too?
It’s everywhere.
And it’s all your fault.
That slickness again.
Blue.
In here, too.
On the cuff. The knee.
The heel of my shoe.
And then I catch a horrifying glimpse in the mirror.
It’s on my face too?
It’s everywhere.
And it’s all your fault.
