Fluid

Change, changeable, ever-changing.

Non-obstructive, easy, without backbone.

Perform, please, perfect.

The black-gloved hand presses down hard.  

A small wince escapes.

She shifts her weight onto her left elbow.

You ok?

No, her body screams, pupils wide.

Sure, she smiles.

One hundred and seventy-two hours in.

A woman being tattooed.

A woman ironing her husband’s underwear.

A woman realising that she is the love of her own life.
