EMILY AS THE REASON SAFFRON IS IMPOSSIBLE DARREN DEMAREE
The bottle is cold.
The bottle is empty.
The mountains
are very, very real.
I am in the snow
all of the time.
I have only a small
amount of time
I can be naked in
this world. I drink
water, so that I don’t
wander too far
from Emily. I eat
the meat I’m given.
I’ve heard of spices,
but what sort
of ether are they?
I want this world.
