Detective, we think you're afraid of spiders. You'd be surprised

No one will ever know. Preserves, beets—anything you don't want.
We'll put the crumbs in our pockets. We'll drink lime soda.

Summers approaches some women by what they're willing to do
or outdo. They believe it themselves, a freedom with bunions.
It's easy to use someone's body.
