Her skin creased like yellowed linen but I began to love those hiding places, pockets of seventy year old sunlight, tears, evidence she smiled, slept, worked, grieved. She lacks fullness, but she is living and a real thing. Hair mostly sandy but those brilliant bouquets of silver. Queenly crown, angelic [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=alltheelbows.wordpress.com&blog=1044217&post=34&subd=alltheelbows&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some Saturdays, Mother took us on drives to the north end to see big houses with winding driveways and yards of green green grass.  I don&#8217;t know if she was trying to torture or motivate herself.  Perhaps to her, torture was motivation. 
She&#8217;d drive with the windows down, the radio off and point.  &#8220;Look at that one,&#8221; she&#8217;d say.  &#8220;I wonder [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=alltheelbows.wordpress.com&blog=1044217&post=28&subd=alltheelbows&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I watch a commercial filled with brown silk and an olive skinned brown eyed girl in its midst, indulging in a square of chocolate.  It&#8217;s supposed to be gourmet.  Probably expensive.  Luxurious, sinful, selfish. 
I&#8217;ve never seen a man in one of these lush, airbrushed, beatific ads.  I guess men don&#8217;t eat chocolate unless it&#8217;s hidden between [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=alltheelbows.wordpress.com&blog=1044217&post=20&subd=alltheelbows&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Johnnie- one hand numb beneath her pillow, the fingers of the other rest against her mouth. I see the smooth shine of her shoulder, the aching bend of her hip, the crush of thighs against her belly.
The stare of her eyes infinite.

He thought her fragile as her regarded the strange convergence of blue green veins at the nape of her hand. This excited him.
