Cinderella from the sea
We met on the beach. The sky was overcast, and the afternoon, a light grey.
She told me about the useless things she used to collect.
"I used to collect boys," she said, with a wry wicked wink in the tone of her voice, "but I stopped after one of them gave me a ladder."
"A ladder?" I was confused.
"A ladder."
"Do you miss any of them?" I asked.
As she contemplated her answer, I started to wonder how her skin would taste. I had a strange urge to lick her belly.
It would be a little bit salty, but smooth.
"Yea, a couple of them" she replied, with an indifference I didn't expect after the amount of time she took to come up with an answer, "especially the one that gave me a ladder. He had a salty, but smooth belly."
