The Seam and The Drop

Fiction

The Seam and The Drop is a new story by sally O’Reilly: Lying on her back in the grassy, dandelion-clocked clearing, the cool albumen oozed on to her pale torso and the yolk thudded lightly on her sternum. She smeared the glossy, fishy viscosity over her belly and breasts, careful not to break the yolk at her centre like the sun.
