firstfullmoon:Richie Hofmann, “French Novel”[text ID: You were my second lover.You had dark eyes and hair,like a painting of a man.We lay on our stomachs reading books in your bed.I e-mailed my professor. I will be absentfrom French Novel due to sickness. You put onsome piano music. Even thoughit was winter, we had to keepthe window open day and night, the room was so hot, the air so dryit made our noses bleed.With boots we trekked through slush for a bottle of red winewe weren’t allowed to buy, our shirts unbuttonedunder our winter coats.The French language distinguishesbetween the secondof two and the secondof many. Of coursewe’d have other lovers. Snow fell in our hair.You were my second lover.Another way of saying this:you were the other,not another.] -- source link
