Eastern StandardI loved you like the firefly loves  the first signs of night, when the  sun grows tired and dips to the West.  Like the firefly loves its captor  who traps it in a jam jar.  Before it is smeared on the face  of a child as war paint in a  ritual with no name or purpose.  True sorcery.   
Because where will the sun sleep  if not in the sky? What is so soft  in the opposite horizon that beckons it  away from the sea’s cool melody?  What can it offer but tall grass  and dry deserts  which leave only a dusty throat  that craves the blue that morning brings? Eastern Standard

At My Window During a BlackoutRain for the days and the sky’s still on fire.  Shocks of orange sky through silhouetted trees.  Heat lightening crackles between my  fingertips. The hair on my arms  rises. Outside,  the wind fans the flames and  parts the trees so that I can see its handiwork.   
It knocks them down and the bats  fly out as storm clouds.  The beating of their wings creates  new wind.  Wind that lifts the silk curtains in waves.  Wind that cools my cheeks and  
carries the lightening back to the sky  where new clouds will try again  to water the earth.

Waking Up In JulyThe humidity rests in the air  directly around you. It presses  down, like  a ghost  that watches while you sleep  and makes you afraid to  open your eyes.   
In the morning it has hidden itself  in the sheets wrapped  tightly around your ankles, your legs.  You are bound to it.  Your head sits heavy on  the pillow, hair weighed down  with  the coming afternoon’s rain.   
All of the wood—a cedar dresser,  pine bookshelf—warps itself. It lets  more and more vapour fill  the spaces where air ought to be.

Yes.
I've had this account for more than five years.
So much for personal growth.
I kid, I kid.

I've been at college for a full term and have yet to flunk out.
That's reason enough to celebrate.
Getting the full poor student experience.
Not as romantic as I may have though, but not so bad either.
I kind of love it.
I may even try to sell some prints, since employment is pretty grim.

Anyway, I really do love college.
It's meant putting a lot of things on hold, but I don't really mind.
Losing touch with people was more upsetting.
It's a two-way street, though, so I don't let it get me down.

Going to Budapest in a few weeks.
So, I'm getting pretty pumped.
And I hope everyone else is pumped about life.
Because it's great.
No, really.

Smile more.

:heart:
Liz

I had to watch your page for two reasons. First of all, you have an amazing gallery! Second, five years ago, when I first joined DA, you commented on my very first deviation... and that's just awesome :) So consider yourself watched!! :+devwatch:
