Sun is shining in a sky that promises that summer will be here soon. This is why we put up with the rain and grey that plagues the area. The summers are glorious. But last only about 20 minutes.
When I opened the door this morning, it was like opening the door to summer. Hints of summer smells drifted into my consciousness. Hot asphalt, rich earth...and how is it that the only color we can smell is green?
The cats are behaving in typical fashion. My cat is dashing from window to door to window trying to soak up every molecule of beautiful weather. His cat is in the bedroom, on the window seat, chin resting on the windowsill. Her eyes are slitted and watching everything that moves on the other side of the glass. The tip of her tail describes lazy infinity symbols in the air.
My cat is licking her chops. She looks as if she's furiously masticating invisible taffy that's stuck to her whiskers and lips.
Three more minutes.
Doing laundry. The clack and clink of bra buckles against the interior of the dryer beats in arhythmic syncopation with the baby blue dryer balls that thwunk and thud against the drum.
One more minute.
In a field of indigo she fell asleep in a dream of wrenches and midnight. Sparks flying to the ground and into the sky. Miniature comets that fell to their deaths in moments. Her dress shifted in the wind. The cloth caressing her knees. A beetle moved oner her thigh, obsessed with finding some purchase among the fine hairs that covered her skin.
