"I think this is a poem you wrote on my phone (or it is something I wrote). I can't remember. It is from a time period when we were in the desert and both had working phones." - Sarah Martin's musings If you thought you had met the love of your life- what would you do? The heat is up our chills up and down, and the faces the old women make in drug-induced ticks, heavy noisome smells mixed with the best greatest sweetest smelling true love you've ever known. And five times a day now you spend hours and hours entwined and touching and being touched by the greatest and softest skin cells your skin has ever been against  And with perfervid excitednees, a cold chest, but tepid limbs, you avoid blinking to extend the lifespans of us both.

Martin's Musings: Co-Written With Sarah Gray

While driving through Joshua Tree National Park I dictated these lines to my fiancée Sarah Gray she added several lines herself, most oftenly everything after the first line of each stanza.
