Mary Shaw

When you know what you want the world turns for you, fast and full of feeling. Kick the T in the pool and surge on, the moment of not trying at all, the only thing worth swimming for. The wind up, a set of toy teeth, when the hand lifts all buzzing and humming but no words coming through. When you slip the trap you get the whole wide world as far as you can run and not be caught. Every bit your own, when you know what you want it's hard not to want it all at once.
