[bodytext] => At night, devoid of obtrusive, writhing movements, the human form wriggles and shimmies from constriction into its most beautiful manifestation, like a diva nonchalantly slipping into her sequinned dress. He looks immaculately beautiful when asleep, long eyelashes flickering slightly and sliding from side to side, movements reminiscent of a slow moving spiky caterpillar, obliviously trailing across a leaf. Two unassuming swipes across his eyes neither question nor worry. There are no creases on his forehead and the light glides off his shiny eyelids smoothly like ice-skating rinks after eleven, just closed for the day. As the mobile cleaning machines rev to a start, a guttural growl flees from his snoring soliloquy, from deep within the barbed wire prisons of the day.
