Forever soon for loving days exchang’d.

Not at all; eventu’lly or never.'

'Hath said that never shall it Never be,
But When.'

'Tonight, alike no other in its
Glowingness of set, doth set us up for
Consummation grand and most spectacular.
'What mean’st thou, Consummation?'
'I would blow thee.'
'Thou wouldst blow me?'
'As the warm and moistest wind. I am
as frisky as bonobo.'

'But fore I soon as bashi'd leave, my brother—
To whose do-gooding shall be ill-doing done,
And from whose Whens all Eventu'llies wrench'd.
My likeness will I make of his true loves—
One nightmare of our two disparate dreams—
And shall deprive him I of future 'cause
He's fuck'd withal my past!
Now just; you; watch me.'

And shall deprive him I of future 'cause

TO SAVE A
FOREST VIRGIN
is the story of four people who
spend an Australian summer
falling in love—
only to find that their
affections might merely
be manipulations,
their lust a cruel conspiracy.

'Why comest thou not!?'
'The wine overhangs my spirit.'
'Should I stop?'
'No, no. God no.'
'Is that more correct?'
'Location yes, but still in method lacking.'
'Perhaps if thou allow'd me kiss thy neck?'
'Not till thou hast brushèd twice thy teeth.'
'There?'
'Closer, yes, but still not done aright—thy circles are too tight.'
