Just before we would leave the hotel,He would pat down my coat,Summon a tissue to wipe an invisible stain.Always preoccupied, him and me.We spoke different languages,And I could barely stand to look him in…

Soft sunrays breached the curtains of Mrs. Aritzia. Specks of light on her powdery comforter, and when she opened her blue e- Woah, wait. No. She wakes up way too late for that. The sun was already out, and she woke up. She had her dog fetch her coffee. Dressed like a butler, the dog…
