an octopus has three hearts

beating

beating

TFW...

you wake up from a sad dream

in which a loved one has died

only to remember

IRL

they're already gone 

arf arf arf

late afternoon

dogs barking

barking barking

dog barking

another dog barking

barking barking

barking

bark bark

bark bark bark

barking

barking

barking

that...

pleasantly calming feeling

as a kitten sleeps 

sweetly

on 

your lap 

Nelson

 

waxwings!

 

cedars + bohos

stripes 

waxwingtips

and feathers

filling the sky

gently rousing us

in

to the new 

lunar year

roaring
