A single black infinity symbol sits on the inner wrist, shown from a close, slightly angled view against a plain pale background. The line is smooth and even in weight, with solid black ink and no shading. The symbol sits centrally on the skin, with the surrounding forearm and wrist filling most of the frame.

The man who ordered it waited under the bakery awning, collar up, watching water drop off the gazebo rope. He wanted one line, he said, that did not stop. Not a chain, not a ring. Something that went round and came back to where it began, with nobody able to find the seam.

I understood him better than I let on. My father bent hooks at this stall for forty years and never once finished a piece, calling every unfinished thing a promise. At half four I set the last bend, pressed the wire flat under my thumb, and felt both ends meet in the middle of the crossing, smooth as a held breath.

He paid in coins and didn't look until he reached the car park. Then he held it up under the sodium lamp and traced the figure with a wet finger, round and round. I pulled the shutter down and swept the offcuts into the gutter, but kept the one bead of solder that had slipped loose, and it's in my coat pocket now, still warm from my hand.
