<p>A man entered the space. Hair. Black. Soft. Moved down his<br />
back. All of his back. Moved when he moved. Kelp with the<br />
tide. Moved him or followed him. I. Like a tiny yellow fish<br />
darted into his hair. And out. No solid between us. Space<br />
only clarified my having him and letting go. Interrupted by<br />
concrete and glass.</p>
<p> A man entered the space. Picture him naked on a white sheet.<br />
His skin the color of walnut oil. His fingers. Hidden. I<br />
wanted him. Suddenly. To never forget.</p>
<p> A man entered the space. Not so many men are beautiful. Not<br />
so many. I personally have seen only four. Maybe five. A<br />
beautiful man is painful to look upon. He is in every aspect.<br />
A man. Has a head joined to shoulders. Arms joined to torso.<br />
Hips riding legs that touch the ground. Thousands. No.<br />
Millions of men pass me in the city streets. One only will move me<br />
to tears. One will disgust me. One will make me pray.</p>
<p> Beautiful men make me still. I. Become, Eyes only. eyes<br />
hiding in a crowded room. Hurts like loss.</p>
<p> A man entered my space. Part crane. Part myth. A man with<br />
invisible wings. Who could rise. Perhaps I fear. The capture.<br />
The ascension.</p>
<p> I now remember nothing except all of him. From where he<br />
occupied space and set his form apart from all other<br />
molecular constructs. Every human who walked into the fifth<br />
floor study registered as not him. I cannot tell you more<br />
than I know. His flesh would be cool. Just enough to keep me<br />
from speaking.</p>
