jon and i went to target last night, and of course forgot to bring in the goods. everything sat in the trunk of the car, out in the cold all night. i was highly amused to find that our advil liquid gel caps had frozen. then i went to eat my green & blacks. it was frozen too. i was no longer amused.

you can also see in this picture how everything in my arpartment is yellow, at all times. the pic has been edited to try and correct it, but there’s only so much lightroom can do. the lights are yellow, the walls are a horrible off-white yellow. i can’t wait to live somewhere worthy of painting the walls and buying new light fixtures!

thanks liz!

The Infinite One

Do you see these hands? They have measured
the earth, they have separated
minerals and cereals,
they have made peace and war,
they have demolished the distances
of all the seas and rivers,
and yet,
when they move over you,
little one,
grain of wheat, swallow,
they can not encompass you,
they are weary seeking
the twin doves
that rest or fly in your breast,
they travel the distances of your legs,
they coil in the light of your waist.
For me you are a treasure more laden
with immensity than the sea and its branches
and you are white and blue and spacious like
the earth at vintage time.
In that territory,
from your feet to your brow,
walking, walking, walking,
I shall spend my life.
