But then one morning I thought I saw her again. I was walking along a street near my apartment carrying a bag that contained three warm pastries or, rather, two and one-half warm pastries – I had already started eating one of them. It had a light, sweet glaze that would have gone well with steamed milk, and I was vaguely touching the tip of my tongue to the center of my upper lip and feeling very happy, thoroughly contented, perhaps even a little smug, when I saw her again, or thought I did.

We are nozzles in the bicycle world
We are accused of elastic worlds of height
We are right in the center world

You may have to wait another generation.
When was the last time you saw one?
Ever see one anymore?

The Steelers have Mike Webster for the center,
never missing a game, he is the longest active Steeler member,
executing good mobility and pass protection well, the NFL love him.

I carved upon my desk unsayables.
He drank until he vomited on himself.
Eavesdropping, the others resisted sleep.
The house knew the pain of sun on lacquered floorboards.

It was early morning just after sunrise.
Delphinium growing out of your mouth pushing up the loose plaster in the ceiling.
I took a pair of large scissors from my belly button and clipped the stems close to the root.
