Once communication became luxury we started to build genuine community. Healer home visits. Crisis meetings at Falsettos. Vast houses warmed by cardboard box heaters. According to Jolette, the dreamy mechanic who lives below rigged some solar panels from CDs. How she keeps fuel in that motorcycle is the real question. Jolette chokes a phlegm-coated laugh: beats me, she admits, maybe she has secret money. A lot of them do. Her spindly fingers bent around her shallow mug.

Motherwort: won’t she do it? Bright grin of broad leaves open in their cluster. Tender purple flowers like slight, high bells adorning slender stalks. Mumming the sleeplessness and gut hurt that the dead leave. The hunger it carries stops wasting, flesh chewing its own flesh. Help us find the cooling heart, lay hands, rub. Improves the body’s blood movement and pushes through collapsing corridors. Hums and plucks and perks up the flattened parts. Returns us to our estranged bodies.
