The ear is an amazing tool. Subtle invitation, subtle beauty, and the jewelry that decorates it! I saw your ears before the gauges, and even then they were small, delicate, and open to me. If I could be any object, knowing what little purpose I would serve, I would be the decorations, hanging, from your earlobe: I would be satisfied being worn on your body, your bright body, your beautiful face sparkling from the lights you liked to daydream in, placed near the delicate halls you’d always embraced me in.

Ode to Gauges (and the Girl Who Wears Them)
The ear is an amazing tool. Subtle invitation, subtle beauty, and the jewelry that decorates it! I saw your ears before the gauges, and even then they were small, delicate, and open to me. If I could be any object, knowing what little purpose I would serve, I would be the decorations, hanging, from your earlobe: I would be satisfied being worn on your body, your bright body, your beautiful face sparkling from the lights you liked to daydream in, placed near the delicate halls you’d always embraced me in.
