all the same? 






in one way or another

- don't stand up to quick -

the legless may remain seated

This is a test


This is only a test.




There is no pass - There is no fail.

Only an eye from dark to light...

Blush


Keg's tapped. There are those red cups over there. She pointed to a small table. I saw blue ones he said. Red, blue. Does it matter? Figured you want me to use the red. She pulled out a shot glass from under the table she was working. She opened a drawer and removed a bottle. It's not the good kind. He took the bottle, removed the cap. He took a good long pull. Better? How'd you know? Your hands are shaking. He blushed the blush a person wouldn't really notice. But she could feel it just the same.

TRANSMIGRATION SOLO

See the black bird in that tree trying out the branches, puzzled. I am up there with you puzzled against the rain blinking my eyes.
