“Back when Harris and I slept together I would often whisper, Let’s dream the same dream, right after we turned out the lights. He took it as a sweet sign-off, but I yearned for this joint dream so hard my teeth hurt.

I was pretty good at getting people to meet me in my mind, but ultimately no one wanted to stay there.”
― Miranda July, All Fours
