A copy of 'Beyond This Dark House: Poems' by Guy Gavriel Kay, with a post-it note on the front and a bookmark sticking out from midway through the book.

The post-it reads:

So the Amazon order showed up first thing this morning. I call that service. Moira and I got this one for you.

Nathan

PS: Check the bookmark. I like this one.



The Refinements

The pinwheel of your choice!
The crucifix! One-legged for modesty
or two for realism---

the naked truth, so to speak.

Nails or thongs, apocalyptic
oaks lopped by lightning,
or the understated subtlety

of polished ash: the brochure
displays your options. Wounding
spears, prophetic ravens,

double axe, crown of thorns
high priest or high priestess
to speak the ancient words---

all these, as you can see,
are standard,
The refinements,

you will appreciate,
lead us somewhat deeper
into the matter,

and cost rather more.
