this day

i opened the door

was shown several card tricks by young illustionsists
i suggested a rabbit
while listening to abba

Sasha, the parrot
payed close attention

as i stitched together a book of love

i sweept
and mopped
and tidied the cookbooks

i drank milky strong tea
brought to me by my sweeties

i read a book on art history

picked up the phone

realized that it is true
the talking heads are wonderful

discovered the association with mixed emotions

shared my lunch
and

closed the door
