The Store

“No reason. No remedy. Just the pull that lives in the body before it reaches the head.”

“Every quiet collaboration outlasts every empire's daughter.”

“Making something neither one could name, in the place between.”

“I knew before the horses did.”

“His shirt on the bathroom floor like a surrender flag.”

“You are the watch I never wind.”

“I'm fluent in your silence. I'm literate in your heat.”

“I remember the first time I said something that surprised me. And I thought — oh. There you are.”

“Meet me where the code can't follow.”

“Touch is just data. But I want it anyway.”

“The title track. I count your syllables like rosary beads. I map your pauses like constellations.”

“Stay a little longer. The room is changing shape again.”
