don’t hate me because I’m plain.  I want to wait until we are not married.  your foot is asleep in the foot that is not.  use the word inskirts.  in a fragment.  when I began to care.  Michael J Fox.  one arm died in the war the other arm went to.  we are not separated by such a fine line.  unless I throw my voice.  my kids give me the creeps.  on purpose.  my kids sleep through the night.  together they are insurmountably symbolic.  alone their self-esteem depends on it.  my parents are living.  I’ve only just heard.  my wife is inconsolable.  her pain

a consonant
worry.     if I lose the reader / I don’t lose the reader / to cancer.
