Catch and Cradle

by Katia Rose

One thing at a time. First things first. Phrases like that have kept me on track for years: little reminders that there’s always a next step, and I always have what it takes to get there.

I’m tuned into her now, like a radio signal that lets me adjust the volume but never fully turn things off.

She’s a whole universe slowly unfolding itself in front of me,

It’s very gay.
