Love story


The fat old moon will grow jealous and crack and fall into the sea.
That is how I will love you.
The whole world is a silver surface, and then it is shattered.

I love the 'fat old moon' - it makes me imagine the moon as someone standing between the persona and the beloved.

That first line is to be savored. Delicious.
Came from the Trifextra link.

Amanda, that first line is exquisite. I love the way you write and I'm yet to click on one of your posts and come away disappointed. We're lucky to have you contributing every week.
