| It’s Quantum, Baby Gorgeous lips positioned at a precise and momentary angle imbue this awkward coupling with the air of something grand.

| The Specimen I am tremendously better late than never. Your sophomoric exploration of me has been discovered. This wicked attempt at colonization, sir, has been brought to light. I am not uncharted, not pure. A braggart’s mission, yours, but this expanse is rebelling. I will not be your midnight exotica, your moonlight bloom meant only for admiration and cataloguing. Can you see me in a glass case, limbs secured with pins, parts lovingly labeled for all to see? I am not your discovery. ©Leslie Joseph 2007 |
