So, you're asking me to be
um, uh
well, just be me!
are you?
are you asking me to say something?
anything?
o p e n up
talk!
be unsilent!
hmmm...
I don't know if this is the right setting for a coconut split
a melon cracked
a nectarine ripped
an open oyster
a world in a chestnut pried wide
is it?
is it really?
really the right place for flailed skin?
oh, but maybe no time is ideal?
you could say that.
and,
I'd believe you
I'd believe you because I always do
even when you think I don't
I believe you.
whenever you say it like that

I'm so glad we can go in and edit these now. I can fix a word here, change another over there.
That's good!
