If you’re quiet, he’ll forget you’re
there, he’ll relax and you can see
a little bit into his soul.
You mustn’t move. The minute
he remembers you, he’ll
fold up tight and access will
be gone. He doesn’t realize it’s the
only thing he has worth seeing, or maybe
he does and he’s embarrassed that he has a soul,
embarrassed to feel naked because you’ve
seen it, worried what you’ll think,
worried that once you know what he is,
it won’t be enough.
