What happened, happened once. So now it’s best in memory - an orange he sliced: the skin unbroken, then the knife, the chilled wedge lifted to my mouth, his mouth, the thin membrane between us, the exquisite orange, tongue, orange, my nakedness and his, the way he pushed my body against the fridge. Beside the stove we ate an orange. And there were purple flowers on the table. And we still had hours.

A very nice listen.
Just seeing the artist list I know this mix will be good. Definitely looking forward to giving this a spin at sunset.
