@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ § deep below § @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ ground level, several elevators down, @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ in the dark water where the surface @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ light doesn't reach, and warmth comes @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ mostly from below - here is the shower. @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ it is dark. you strip, and it's cold. @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ your feet feel the cold stone floor, @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ your hands find the rubber handles to @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ guide you into the cabin. @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ and then, the hot water, the @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ underground rain. drenching you, @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ lathering you. infused with oils and @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ scents. and then, also from above, the @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ shower creatures. first their black @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ velvet arms, touching, and then entire @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ bodies. chests and snouts. @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ the creatures are meant to comfort you, @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ keep you entranced, and keep you from @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ leaving the cabin prematurely. this @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ whole ordeal works best if you are not @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ transformed too early, and are instead @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ allowed to enjoy the shower for a while. @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ you are steamed, caressed, cleaned, @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ modified, liquified; dissolved and @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ drained... and then brought back, @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ slowly, waking as the water dries off @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ of you. cabin open to the cold air @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ tickling your fresh-born mind. creature @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ hands gone, you step out. @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ @¨@@¨@¨¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ later, elevator back up. new body. @¨¨@¨@¨@@¨
