"Nobody's Leaving. . .




. . .but I still feel left behind."

("Seems to Want to Hurt This Time," Donna the Buffalo)

I wish the girl had a cat tail.    And cat ears.  And maybe stripes, too.  Just today.  Seems to me right now  you are all on vacation, frolicking at the beach or breathing fresh mountain air while I go to work.  Homemade ice cream on sunny porches overlooking the mighty Atlantic.  Crepes on a veranda overlooking the mighty Pacific.  Laughter and ease.  All of this is happening.  All of this is possible.  And yet. . . .

If only I could paint.  She'd look like a cat.  Under the sickle of a moon.

  2. Dreamt vacations are wonderful, on a bed with a bottle of wine surrounded by books, brochures, and catalogs.
