It is the char on a marshmallow after being held over a fire; it tastes better than it looks. It is the asphalt after the rain; it smells better than it feels on bare skin. It is an optical illusion; it’s hard to identify at first, but once you do you can’t unsee it. It is the difference between bourbon and cheap ***** a choice between quality and quantity to get the same job done. It is an anemone protecting a clownfish; it’ll sting whatever tries to enter without the clownfish’s permission. It is what I am after everything I’ve been through... Each item is not sold separately; if you want one you buy the whole set.
