(the little praying mantis that landed on my Gatorade bottle, and had the nerve to play fight with me.)


Today I love,
sliced bananas on my morning's Coco Crunch and soy milk,
a silver moon, dilated as a pupil, hiding between clouds,
the baby lizard in my room that has managed to coexist with me,
Pablo Neruda's "If You Forget Me" poem
[...But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine...]
and feeling love.

I'm thinking about auditing Filippenko's Astronomy 10 class just because I hear he's amazing, and of course, because it's astronomy.

If tomorrow the sun shines, I will trade in driving the Honda Civic for our Honda motorbike. This, I swear.
