there was once a society in which
true love became obvious at a very young age,
and brilliant artists were asked to intertwine
the bodies of the adoring. Their arms and legs
combined would form fantastic shapes; the radical
intimacy of their limbs would awe the most
accomplished tree sculptor. The most remarkable
part of the craft was that the lovers would grow
together--fingers bowed with lacing, ribs skewed,
every nook and hollow seeming to bend into a heart.
