Mr. Teodoro Luna in his later years had taken to kissing

    His wife

    Not so much with his lips as with his brows.

    This is not to say he put his forehead

    Against her mouth——

    Rather， he would lift his eyebrows¹， once， quickly：

    Not so vigorously he might be confused with the villain²

    Famous in the theaters， but not so little as to be thought

    A slight movement， one of accident. This way

    He kissed her

    Often and quietly， across tables and through doorways³，

    Sometimes in photographs， and so through the years themselves.

    This was his passion， that only she might see. The chance

    He might feel some movement on her lips

    Toward laughter.
