<p>Sensitive hands</p>

<p>He has the most beautiful hands. Long fingers, arced tips, black hair shiny as crow&rsquo;s feathers on his knuckles, palms webbed with fine lines. Grinning, he says the tangle of lines means he&rsquo;s ultra-sensitive. He&rsquo;s sensitive, but not the way you&rsquo;d expect. I say &ldquo;You&rsquo;re shallow.&rdquo; He shrugs. I tease him until he&rsquo;s turned on, then make a married woman&rsquo;s excuse and split. He smiles. Always eager to see me, never mentions I&rsquo;m married. Sensitive like the fox. Hangs around after dark, knows when he&rsquo;s getting too close and when it&rsquo;s time to leave. I leave. I keep coming back.&nbsp;</p>
