soft
giggles
like crumbs of encouragement

warm
murmurs
like holding a shaking hand

pillows of 
intention
there to catch you

if,
just if.

3. Just the other day, someone came into where I work (retail) and asked to borrow a phone charger. I told them I didn’t bring my phone to work. They looked at me like I was crazy.
