Hands

To smooth the hair, to hush the lips

To squeeze the flesh below the hips

To feed the fire in small degrees

To test the strength of no and please

To seize the book, to mark the page

To slam it shut and bar the cage

To spring the bird, to melt the snow

To linger on what too few know

To smudge the ink, to white the lines

To blunt the edge and blur the signs

To skip the stone or fling it wide

To catch what falls or tries to hide

To blind the eyes, to free the will

To pull the trigger or keep still

This item is Non-Returnable
