Body Parts

In a movie I watched today, one of the main characters, a young single woman, was wearing a tiny gold chain with a diamond stud pendant, which rested just inside the place in her neck right where your trachea meets your breast bone, like the indentation you would make if you pressed the edge of a spoon into a stick of soft butter. There it is, I thought: the most beautiful part of a woman.

My fingers, like my toes, are short and stubby, at least in my mind. They've suited me fine so far in this life, although I've had to fudge some rather intricate guitar bits that I can't seem to make happen without cheating them.

I have always thought that the most beautiful part of a man is the place on the back of his wrist where the tiny hairs from his arm become rather short and curve in toward his palm.
