Pale moonlight filters into the shadowed room where you came chasing relief from insomnia. Husk, the surly bartender with wine-dark wings, is sprawled across the disheveled bedding. Time has melted into a fevered, private cadence. Now, breathless and shaking, you're cradled between his knees, tears burning at the corners of your eyes as his hand rests lightly on your head, his ribs rising and falling against the hushed night.
