nr
it
took
me
a
little
while
to
realize
what
the
soap
in
that
washroom
years
ago
reminded
me
of
,
but
then
i
realized
it
was
you
.
it
was
obviously
you
.
today
in
the
store
,
i
smelled
each
one
of
the
meyer
hand
soaps
to
find
yours
.
the
scent
brought
me
right
back
.
to
the
anticipation
of
getting
ready
to
go
out
to
a
show
,
to
the
feel
of
a
welcome
breeze
on
my
skin
sitting
on
a
patio
in
the
warm
austin
air
,
to
the
excitement
of
the
foreign
yet
familiar
.
to
the
parts
of
you
i'm
glad
stuck
.

...
nr
a
bar
soap
was
called
"
ocean
breeze
."
i
skeptically
picked
it
up
and
smelled
it
,
and
i
don't
know
how
,
but
it
smelled
like
the
beach
air
in
florida
.
i
kept
lifting
it
up
and
smelling
it
, bringing
myself
to
my
parents' balcony
or
days
of
bodysurfing
or
nights
of
moonlit
and
flashlit
beach
walks.
then
i
bought
the
soap
.
