Chapter 2 : Domestication

“Jestina,” i ran my palm across the white cotton bedsheet — soft, a little cold, clean — and laid down the small ironing board on the second bed. While pulling the rattan chair, setting it next to the bed, biting my lower lip i had asked, “do you know how to iron t-shirts?”

Who am i now after all these deliberate years?

Shut!
your eyes and consume me
and everything that you do know about me
Chew,
faster don’t linger.

“She upstairs,” said Vernice, “shower i think.”

“Oh,”
