A loose red button
Desperately clings
To the lustrous satin
That tries to glissade to freedom
But he holds resolute
An unyielding recruit
His charge will not take flight
He’ll keep her secure throughout the night
She reads books as one would breathe air, to fill up and live. -Annie Dillard

I love how you capture the fragility of a loose button, and how this translates into fragility of character in narrative. A lovely piece 🙂

Definitely 🙂 I think it brings about different thoughts and dialogue that wouldn’t always occur in an everyday scene.
