"I stood in front of your dresser, then, your nightgown stretched over the white shape of my hand. Every night the grandfather clock’s regular tick paced down the hall." - Maia Armistead (Maia Armistead), 'Smoke in the Distance' starlingmag.com/issue-15/maia-…

your nightgown stretched over

Every night the grandfather clock’s
regular tick paced down the hall."
