Bullet Vibrator in a New York Gym Locker Room, Winter Morning

The locker room empties after the 6 a.m. spin class and she stands at her open locker for a moment too long — the bullet is in her gym bag where she put it deliberately last night, and she counts the...

She starts counting before she means to. The last footstep — heels on tile, unhurried, someone who has nowhere to be at six-fifteen on a Tuesday — and then the soft hydraulic sigh of the outer door, and she is already at three before she decides that counting...

The cedar shadow falls across the path and I step into it without deciding to. The trunk is still damp from last night's rain — I can feel it through my shirt the moment my back settles against the bark, a cold that spreads between my shoulder blades and...

Rabbit Vibrator in a Chicago Office Bathroom, Midday

Twelve minutes before the all-hands resumes — she locks the single-occupancy bathroom on the 34th floor, sets the rabbit on the lowest setting, and tracks the second hand on her watch with the same...
The second hand passes twelve and she starts counting. Eleven minutes, fifty-nine seconds. She knows the number because she counted the walk from the conference room — forty-one steps, one elevator bank, one locked door — and she knows the number because she...

The green is not one color. She noticed that first — the way the rain fly turns noon into something underwater, something that belongs to a different taxonomy of light entirely. Olive where the nylon doubles at the seams. Pale where it stretches thin over the...

The mirror is still there. I keep expecting to have turned it back. Three weeks ago I carried it out of the bathroom on a Thursday night, set it against the baseboard across from the bed, angled it up. I don't know what I thought I was doing. I told myself it...
