i am finding a little spot for myself underneath his blue ceiling & between the two ugliest lamps one can imagine. it is morning and i have to strip the sheets before the cat cant get to them. oustide my door his three year old nephew waits for me in the nude. standing on the toliet next to the bathroom sink, teo helps me prepare for the day. he loves to watch me put in my contacts & apply lipstick.
"how do i look?" i ask him.
"good, good," he responds & i almost believe him. he hands me a brush at the end of my exciting grooming process: a gentle reminder that perhaps my hair is indeed out of control. at the end of our afternoon ben and i settle down for a few thomas the tank engine episodes with the strawberry stained boy who offers me his cheese & tomato sandwhich. i cant refuse.
the court and spark: rooster mountain
