Two Girls and a baby-cat

Two girls are stoned and driving home from hanging out with a friend. Night is long past fallen and the windows are open to let in the warm breeze.

Kate: Amy is hilarious, we should hang out more often on the oh, shit I almost hit a cat!

Meg: Oh man, good thing you didn’t, that would have been terrible.

Kate: You know what would have been worse? If it’d been a kitten.

Meg: Or what if it had been a baby? Oh, that would be really sad!

Kate: Or a baby and a kitten?

Meg: Or a baby wearing a cat suit!

Gales of laughter carry out of the windows into the humid night as the car drives on unaware that a baby in a cat suit is listening. The baby smiles and shakes it head. If only they knew.

Picking daintily through the grass
he prances contentedly
wet with dew he shakes off
drops in one movement
and notices me with curiosity
and looks away, seeing the field as new
goes back as he came
navigating through the tall weeds
looking back in astonishment at his wet paws

"We create a reality that is a reflection of how we feel"

"A dog in hunt doesn't stop to itch it's fleas"

Happy Fourth of July!

The grocery store was crowded this fourth of July. People were buying hot dogs and beer as if our very independance depended on it. As I walked in with my roommates a man wearing a red HEB apron and hat greeted us. "Hey guys! How ya'll doin' today?" We said we were good, thanks, and you? "I'm doing good! Let me know if you need anything, except money Haha! I don't get paid till Thursday!" We smiled uncomfortably and began shuffling away. He waved to us "it looks like ramen again tonight!"
