no one to see, no where to go.. let's work late. returning home to a house to myself.. i dream of how this will become a daily occasion next month. and now, to take advantage of the moment. moved my radio next to the sink: turned on. i could feel the steam rising, watched it pass through the candle light.. water was hot. so was i. i took extra care around the knees, and created a palate for liquid softness. dropletts formed as the oil soaked in followed by a euphoric state of mind. peace.
