More deep breathes. Less cigarettes.

A Pack of Things

New vinyl smell. Rain on a windscreen (windscreen wipers). Dog eared books. Spelling a word right the first time you write it. Someone else’s hair in your face. 12:00am. 11:11pm. Acoustic guitars. No top. Bubble wrap. Hot weather at 1:00am. The muscles in your shoulders. Empty roads on the way home. Sitting upside down, staring out the windshield in the passenger seat. A comment on your wall. Inside jokes. Sugar. Candles and power failures. Knowing where you’ll be a week from now. The expected, unexpected. Dichotomy. Serendipity. Words ending on an “e” sound. The whole day is in bed.
