a muted winter sun peeks through the clouds that won't go away this december
the water on the pavement reflects the city like a mirror.
this mirror has seen cleaner bodies than ours.
you count your steps more often than your blessings
but I can't fault you because yours steps are easier to count.

hit in the chest, waking up at 1:00 in the morning.
you don't turn on the overhead light because those two bulbs are too bright.
there's a k-9 unit in the alley way but you can't hear what they're saying.
check the exterior doors because you thought you heard a quiet noise,
it was probably just the dryer and if that's so then the clothes will be done by morning.
when the warmth from your blankets has finally been blown off your skin she will speak out in her sleep calling you back to bed.

A gorgeous journey through a kaleidoscopic array of sonic approaches melted together that feels old and new at the same time.
