Clenching and Unclenching
I forced my gaze to the window. A dumb little
operation barely kept afloat over the years by
questions flittered past me, but I wasn't too worried
it had neutralized the acid. (Who knew how these
dangers of what we were doing were suddenly not
even things like doing the laundry?)
I don't do anything but play
the air like an old song
but I'd never known about
signing people up for credit
and they wander around the hulking
meaningful pattern. It was useless information.
