Feel Free

Feel free, my optometrist says, to rest your chin on the chin rest. Feeling free, I do exactly that. We do the binaries together. Better one, better two? Choice A, choice B? I feel free when he asks me to read the bottom line, and I feel free when I wash my hands and put in a new pair of contacts. He is lucky to have caught me on such a good day. Without a heart of grace and the ecstatic shrugging off of all of life's baggage, that eye puff test can be one tricky bitch.
