Here

there is something comforting about sitting here with my hand on Robert’s breast
he says, here, steady yourself against me here, he says, after a pause, he is thinking how best
to fit me, he says it must have been bad but you’re here, you’re with us
the surroundings burst with surgical fittings
it all looks very Weimar, very neue Sach
i expect fishnets, a crossed leg, a trail of cigar smoke somewhere
but there is only Robert and me and all the boxes
and Robert saying again, here, steady yourself against me here
