novembre ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- slinky the rings i bought off a street vendor when i was sixteen years old no longer fit. i have worn them for nine years. i turn twenty five in fifteen days and still my fingers are changing shape, pulling themselves outwards like a self-conscious man sucking in his beer gut. my face is leaner, my torso is more sleek. i feel as if i am turning into an arrow that will shoot upwards because there is nothing to keep it held in its quiver. 1:05 pm - 11.10.03 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
