  • enigma machine set to . . .

    i have a hard time with trust. with putting myself out on that limb that leaves me without stone and mortar defense.
    9 c15nce9ve xxxxx xxxxx 1xx xxxxxx x15xxxx where none are.
    i conceive secret codes and hidden motives where none 1-18-5.
    said sincere, or repeated to others with the same lilt, your same sweetness, ending with the same cadence?
    i conceive secret codes and hidden 13-15-20-9-22-5-19 23-8-5-18-5 14-15-14-5 1-18-5.
    timorously, i reach out. only to be turned aside by a slick and taut reply, a smile. each time, i hesitate more and more. each time, more humorous, bigger and brighter.
