"why do birds suddenly appear"

Day nine of the cold count.
still feeling miffed about not being able to spend the summer months in europe, although it means my impending escape from the G has been pushed forward.
[moths fluttering against the walls of my abdomen.]
my dreams have developed a feline face motif.
days pass while i sip stale coffee and smoke parliaments,
playing with dolls and cameras.
i chipped my milk glass ring.
today i received a sun-faded Sandman poster in exchange for a smile-
a smug grin plastered to my face the rest of the walk home.

"you are a yellow surprise."

You're not going to Europe? Boo effin' hiss -

But, you could come hang out with me sooner and I can take you to the best thrift store I have been to in my whole life -


(which might make up for Europe)

- and if not, there's always deep dish pizza between sky-scrapers.

Yah, it's a bummer about europe, but . . c'est la vie. I'm trying not to get upset about things that i can't control.
and getting to come see you sooner is totally an upside!
how does end of may/early june sound??
