Noon. We are closest at Noon, when the sun is cruel and when I teach you how to tell when a girl wants a kiss. I've built a wall between us; now be a dear and lean against it. As the sun hammers onto our heads, I reflect upon how difficult the word Noon must be to pronounce in your precious French mouth. You feel self- conscious about your accent well guess what so do I and I've been encumbering this freedom-infested continent since 2001. You try to dig out a groove in the wall - but you see, when I built it I made sure it was so sturdy we'd die against it. This is Noon.
