The Dreamer
Her eyes are always somewhere you cannot quite follow, and she is content there. The quiet one, dreaming the thing before anyone thought to want it.
The place behind her eyes, and the quiet it takes to stay there. Eva is not waiting to be fetched back; she is already somewhere good, dreaming the thing the rest of us have not thought to want yet.
Still and unhurried. She looks past you more than at you, and seems none the lonelier for it.
Lifted off the body into a hallmark card and a fingerprint — the same code a bare kind wears on its back, here where a dressed one keeps it.
