“Massage is the study of anatomy in braille.” Jack Meagher
My Map You talk to me of maps, those creased folds of two dimensional hope, but my map is different, I can trace her contours feel her heart, her pulse, the softness of her skin, I can see the road to perdition and descend in love. Copyright 2023 ©️Paul Vincent Cannon All Rights Reserved ®️

Yours is a beautiful map, Paul. I think many of us would give up ‘those creased folds of two dimensional hope’ for a map with contour, heart and pulse.

I was expecting the descent into love but not the road to perdition.
