🛏️ 03.16.21

Photo of two low beds, half-obscured by three shoji panels. A mess of clothes and sheets lie atop the beds.

Ceiling thoughts, which often end up as fodder for dreams: secondhand joy, genesis narratives, paraphernalia, angels that boogie, remembering a face you've never met, warm soymilk, prismatic light, a wall papered with postcards, non-places, the way people solve problems, roots pushing out of sidewalks.

Waking up is less a chore nowadays, more of a joyful stumbling. How will I carry my dreams into the too-bright world? Will I buckle under the weight? Will I plant my feet and stick the landing?
