Guts

Kimberly King Parsons

$10.00

When I start dating Tim, an almost-doctor, all of the sick, broken people in the world begin to glow. Light pours from careful limpers in the streets, from the wheezers and wet coughers who stop right in front of me to twist out their lungs. People I once found gross or contagious are radiant, gleaming with need.
