Abstract

Narcissus Buys a Waterbed to Sleep with Himself Preston Smith (bio) If you feel you’re being watched, you arenot alone. I go to bed early, bedraggledby what the day has wrought, by beautyand the way Narcissus scorned that lakewith a single look. I never wanted morethan to be water and to manipulatemy shape to the wills of others,to lie under him just one time. [End Page 129] Preston Smith PRESTON SMITH holds an MA in English literature and writes poetry and fiction. His work appears in Thin Air Magazine, Tilde, and Perhappened, among other publications. Fairy tales have given me hope since I was a child, and they later became ways to express myself and my emotions, as well as the focus of my research in graduate school. They’re my forever love.
