introspective periscope : peeking inside since Y2K ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- worn out the lunch speak - eleventh of july, 2003 "its friday i'm in love"~the cure its been one hellacious week..hellacious? is that the word? barely seeing you between sleeping and waking...rushed conversations on the porch as the summer bugs and moths fluttered around the lone porch light by the screen doors...lazy animals excited that we've finally come home, disappointed that we've simply gone to sleep rather than stayed up and played or interacted or anything at all...phone calls and grogginess and raw skin from too many hours in a hot kitchen and your eyes...they just looked so tired last night and i had barely finished my good-night-i-love-yous before i felt your body give over to sleep, sighing and snoring in its exhaustion. and all i've had to look forward to this week to get me beyond the double busrides and the angry shoppers has been tonight...that you'll get some rest. that you can finally take a breath. that you can finally get some sleep that lasts later than sunrise for a change. that we can have sunday. just promise me that there will always be sundays. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .what came before. - .what happened next. a diamond at the bottom of the drain - 20 october 2017 |
