Joel dreams about hands and the things they can do, how they touch and what they yield. He dreams of his own hands crumbling, pillars of bone turned to salt that piles as he stands, cells into granules that pull him apart.
He dreams about his heart beating, fist to palm fist to palm fist to palm, and he dreams of replacing it with a hundred tiny gears that don't make a sound once oiled.
He dreams that his breath stops, voluntary and unnecessary.
He dreams about parts gone missing--no no nothing's missing. Two legs. Two arms. Two hands that grip tight onto dark sheets.
Nothing to miss.
When he wakes he jabs needles in his skin, buries ink in his skin, paints dreams in his skin.
