GHOST SHIP LIGHTNING THE TYPE ASTRONAUT THE PARADOX IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY NOTES CREDITS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ABOUT THE AUTHOR ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATOR L P #137 OVE OEM I will wake you up early even though I know you like to stay through the credits. I will leave pennies in your pockets, postage stamps of superheroes in between the pages of your books, sugar packets on your kitchen counter. I will Hansel and Gretel you home. I talk through movies. Even ones I have never seen before. I will love you with too many commas, but never any asterisks. There will be more sweat than you are used to. More skin. More words than are necessary. My hair in the shower drain, my smell on your sweaters, bobby pins all over the window sills. I make the best sandwiches you’ve ever tasted. You’ll be in charge of napkins. I can’t do a pull-up. But I’m great at excuses. I count broken umbrellas after every thunderstorm, and I fall asleep repeating the words thank you.
