trust me! a couple. a trust fall. a relationship meant to fail. these cups worn within one’s mouth are a teetering act between a couple who take turns feeding each other water by pouring it from cup to cup. water takes on the role of an all encompassing act of “care.” wearers must focus on not swallowing the water. not selfishly taking the care, but preserving it to reciprocate the act of giving to their partner. can the balance last forever? or will their shirts become soaked from misplaced care? either way, they’ll end up with nothing more than a sore jaw.
