my mother was Channel No. 5.

i was XS (until i learned it was discontinued).

it has been a brutal parting with the fumes of 1994 (when i first started wearing it) contained in its now empty bottle.

how do i start over?

where do i begin?

it’s a parting i refuse to accept.

(and on a totally unrelated note:  joan’s cigarettes.)
