icarus

with wings like these...
it's real hard to keep myself from getting so close to the sun.


one of us must know (sooner or later) : bob dylan
battle : colbie caillat
carry you around : ani difranco
just for now (live) : imogen heap
omaha : counting crows
honey honey : feist
stacked crooked : the new pornographers
pray for us : the melanesian brotherhood



buying watermelon in the morning. sauteed carrots, tomatoes, and mushrooms {three things i never used to like}. doing the dishes to louis armstrong. talking to my father about beer. the hamilton girls. cloves on the front porch, and laughing too loud. sassy black russian bartenders. sassy vodka katherines. MJ on the violin. turquoise sheets. finding old photographs of dance parties in vacant apartments. new skin, pink skin, growing a thick skin. seeing your ghost on the sidewalk. trying not to hope at the hint of green. caramel apple empanadas. running for literacy. antifall reunion plans, grocery shopping, and the view from our bathroom window.

the UW-stout is naming their library after my grandfather.


did you hear? | are you scared? | huh, these feathers | i fly like a bird.
