I hope your evening went as planned and was very romantic and enjoyable :) Things are quiet here at last in Malta, and I'm starting to relax again. I have squash at lunchtime, and that should help a lot!
Vigil “Kittering’s Vigil,” she says and he blinks twice for yes. It overlooks the whole town; look up and it’s there Competing with air for ‘most ubiquitous thing’. “He pushed you off.” Blink. Blink.
Up and down that hall he paced, Watching the second hand lose the race, Fingering the kerchief with his mother’s lace, All just to see his baby’s face.
