I'm in Thailand. I was brought here to meet twin sisters who guard a sacred site.

Inland. Up. Hot, humid forest.

The sisters wear magenta sarongs or loincloths and bikini tops... and tall, spectacular gold-feathered headdresses. Look like giant tropical birds.

To begin the ritual, they enter the temple and sit, chanting a long sutra.

Then one stands and strides past me, but pauses when the string of her loincloth breaks. She turns her back to me and reties it in a breath.

Then her top breaks. And this time, she can't fix it fast enough. Without the cloth restraint, her breasts escape...

... and run free. Slide all around! She chases them round her ribs.

Once she catches up, squeezing them back into the halter, only to have them balloon out up & over a shoulder, skittering under the skin down her back.

Not balloons--too willful. More like rebel hamsters.

Once a breast has tasted freedom...

NOTES IN THE MORNING

• Shifting breasts, wardrobe malfunctions: Read about the making of Blade Runner--an actor doing an erotic dance wanted a bikini, the producers wanted nudity, she counter-proposed a cybersnake because she's a snake freak and it'd be sexy/scary/cool, but the FX crew wasn't sure they could deliver; all moot in the end, because the money ran out! Idealists think art shapes a film, auteur-theorists think it's the director, cynics think it's cheesecake, I thought it was input from the whole team--ideas, biases, and personal quirks. Wrong! It's not even money; it's poverty. Limited resources.
• Breast-growth: pretty sure this means the increased health and sexual possibility I've felt the last couple years. But dream warns it's, um, wobbly? Rebellious? At least a tendency to... stray.
• Sacred site: sex really can be holy. And that doesn't involve control by the ego. May even need a loss of control...
• ACTION: Date and flirt, but don't try committing to anyone soon. My body doesn't want to be, um... haltered?
