shut the door and shut off the light
somewhere there's no distracting breeze of information
leaking through the windows, dripping from the trees
somewhere there's no earthquakes
of other people's anxious questions

I was on a cruise for a week. Saw some places in Mexico that I'll surely return to someday. Had dreams each night. Some strange and some not. (Realized things on my mind that I wasn't really aware of,... and also, that there are some things/feelings I will never forget, even if I never think of them while awake... There are things that your mind and body just hold onto, without you even trying.) It was the first trip I've been on where I wasn't looking for things for friends back home, because there aren't any. I did try to find things for Steph and Amanda, with no luck. I didn't buy much of anything, though. I got a little purse and Max got a bottle of Mezcal (similar to Tequila) with a worm. It was nice to be away for a week. It was also nice to come back home. Time spent away from something can restore it, make it better. We have lots of pictures and we have new memories... Anyway, hello again... every day is a new story.

crude sunlight rolling through my window
telling me it's not your time
and still the voices calling
c'mon
crack in the wall
the only place I can crawl to safety
