poppies II

the clouds have swallowed the sun. this is my favourite type of day, when the heat settles and the air isn’t so sticky. of course, this is a rarity, this afternoon haze, so we take advantage of it — reading by the pool, napping under the fan, chasing deals in the streets…

everything else is past tense. i am present.

“if one jumps over the edge, one is bound to land somewhere” - d.h. lawrence

today reminded me of this:

“my people were fair

and had sky in their hair

but now they’re

content to wear stars”
