“She enjoys holding herself in, taking things deliciously slowly. Her own company is quite fulfilling. At last, she has learnt to live in the moment, to let it be, let it hang and swing and rock in the air. A moment has a smell, a taste, a sound. A moment doesn’t go back on its promises. A moment spills and fills with music, light, airy, elegant music, strings.”
— Jackie Kay, from Short Stories: Why Don’t You Stop Talking; “Shell,”

December never felt so wrong
Cause you’re not where you belong
Inside my arms
