romantic roadkill

and it seems like I'm lost somehow
my heart got lost on
the way to my head
and my brain cells are dead

and the craziness shows
now I start to go when
the green turns to red
and I should be dead

an afternoon to remember

"Nothing's perfect," sighed the fox. "My life is monotonous. I hunt chickens; people hunt me. All chickens are just alike, and all men are just alike. So I'm rather bored. But if you tame me, my life will be filled with sunshine. I'll know the sound of footsteps that will be different from all the rest. Other footsteps send me back underground. Yours will call me out of my burrow like music. And then, look! You see the wheat fields over there? I don't eat bread. For me, wheat is no use whatever. Wheat fields say nothing to me. Which is sad. But you have hair the color of gold. So it will be wonderful, once you've tamed me! The wheat, which is golden, will remind me of you. And I'll love the sound of the wind in the wheat..."

-- Antoine de Saint-Exupéry , The Little Prince


It's wonderful when you find out that a close friend has found love. For me, it's like comfortably sitting on a wooden picnic table, watching as yellow leaves get swept up in the cool summer afternoon breeze.

Come to think of it, that memory comes from a certain summer afternoon four years ago. It was the day I found love.
