Image of a telephone pole with a pink sticker sticking on its side that says, "BLUSH LIKE THIS." Or maybe, "BLUSH, LIKE THIS." Cars are coming and going on the street in the background on a rainy day.

A pit of doubt, sweaty pits, sweaty utility pole. I've been seeing more and more reminders lately, stickers posted up on billboards and company slogans mistaken for solemn prayer. Even when the source of the words are removed, seeing the words like that when you're standing in the middle of a rainy sidewalk can pull you out of your own head, drunken with the idea of aloneness.

I must confess I did take this photo a few days ago, but even though it was sunny today, the energy of this day remains. I love and hate sunny days because I feel guilty for not going out and doing it all, splayed out in one glorious day.

Still, all flowers need both water and sun.
