“We git six across the backseat and shiver together, arms and legs wrapped like eels around each other.”

“We pass each other notes in the hollows of our collarbones.”

“We will know each other by the way our watches slip from our wrists, the bruises on our knees, our winged shoulder blades tenting silk dresses.”

“Beneath the wishbone of her legs, the fox shudders. The moon falls right out of thesky. Fur springs up to cover wounds, its tail traces an “S” on the asphalt.”

“We love our secrets; anything hidden is so dear to us, we who are always on display”

“Underwater, we are transparent”

“We will not stick our heads in ovens. We will not throw ourselves from bridges, nor weight our pockets, nor disturb our veins.”
