Strutting avec Cyndi Lauper, a flourish. Stunt-
kissing Kevin S. behind school on roller skates getting all
electric in biology class, at Dairy Queen, babysitting, Louie M.
lying on top of me under layers of Michigan winter we were
excessive. Those scenarios could get orthodontically complex.
Trepidatious afterglow we’d saunter back to school. Who needed
oratory? We were mad for the body in its meant-for-pleasure
finery, lips a-cherry,
nails glossed wine, libido an overdrive meant to keep us here a
long time.
