He faces out, she faces him, their two bodies like two mountain ranges flowing up then down against the horizon of the bed. They lie there in the slowness of sleep, two lovers in one bed, a composition of possibilities and perspectives. Each soft and subtle movement is as slow and methodical as the erosion of earth over time, like changes and transformations of the planet, the continents, the land masses themselves. Both chests rise and fall in near syncopation, floating up then down with every inhalation and exhalation, every breath in and out, and in again. The palm of a hand rests on the surface of the bed, the crook of an elbow in front of a torso, the bend of the leg at the ball and socket of the hip, an inclination of a knee. They lie side by side, neither body touches the other. He faces the interior of the room, oblivious to the window behind her where beams of sunlight slowly begin to caress their way across the ceiling, dancing quietly into the corners of the room, extending their reach further and further. He lies with his back to her in the bed, the softness of his shape of bone and ligaments, and joints, and musculature-the shape of his mass-hidden beneath his blanket of skin covered by the fabric that blankets him. His right side curves up to the top of his head, up and around the outline of his ear, contouring down the crevice of his neck, then over the top of his shoulder, the fold of his arm, to the drop to his rib cage.
