Her nose was sensitively shaped, of course, and set in the center of her face between her eyes, where it emerged gently and then proceeded downwards ending in a sharp curve like a baleing hook. At night when I slept, I would dream of her nose on the Great Pyramid of Cheops; twenty million cubic feet of ivory white flesh crowning the eastern wall, inhabited by fifteen thousand wall eyed morning jacks, two thousand cave bats and myself. I dreamed of living there in alone in halcyon rapture, until one day when two cats moved in, and I discovered, to my doom, her allergy. Steve m s sdcsvax!sdcattb!wa125
