it never did occur to me there
at the edges of nowhere in particular
that anything was contagious
just you leaking a smile
that seemed harmless enough

but then you waved too
and I should have know by your hands
that I would have to try them on
to see if the tan came off
or anything else really

and then we played in words
just ankle deep splattering
and you pretended not to be drowning
so I jumped in to save you
but you had fishnets on

and knew how to use them
on all of the hooks I had brought
to bait your affected infection
which you said was treatable
and you whispered what the cure was

but that's something I can't say here

ohhh, can I play too? Dear D. this is a fantastic write and the quoted sentence has such power that it will be indelibly stuck in my mind.
