anyway, more to come soon, I promise. I've been singing up a storm on my ukulele and I'll be posting some sparse little covers here and there, and I'm also working on writing a song! which is so exciting! because I've tried before and it was just really hard but for some reason when I tried again, it was a piece of cake ... must be all of these poetic creative juices I've been cultivating this year. or perhaps because working in a chord mindset by playing the ukulele is easier for song-writing than a melodic piano mindset.
school is good. I am exhausted. I didn't catch up on any much-needed sleep over the weekend. but I did go to celesta's house for dinner and had a fun time. I came bearing gifts of books I got for super cheap at a bargain book sale. I love books and I love giving gifts and I love giving books as gifts! ta-da!
well, I've got to go put my laundry in the dryer. cheerio.
We are alive too! Claire was telling me you might visit. That would be great. I hope you are good, and for loving poetry so much, here is a sneak peek B-side from my upcoming thesis.

in a living room by the grand
many songs sung
by tanagers around
feathers falling safely
against rockwhite
slopes molded over
with clear clear ice
further into wetlands
into space
or along the muddy
brook cutting crosswise
in its place
