First, give up everything you thought you knew. Then open your breathless chest and look in. Find the single thing you came here with, attached by only a string. If it is shopworn, treat it tenderly. If it is shiny, put your fingerprints all over it. Call it by its secret name. Give it a drink of water in the night. When the lightning flashes through the window, you will discover its arm outside the covers, cradling you in its grasp.
