manda's day off.....

[thickfur]

asleep...woken by stretching paws
sunlight mistaken for clouds
curled around a heater
watching pj harvey
drinking sweet tea
washing the dishes in an oversized shirt
a tightness in my throat

an unexplained sickness that washes over
and retreats like a rolling white wave

vomit that tastes of honey
my nostrils flaire
grey eyes curling over my refection
dizzy then elated
is this the euphoria that bulimic models feel...?

wash away this skin
striding into a sunny windy day
nick drake in my headphones
feeling like caramel
tired and calm
my insides a humble sleeping knot

think i'm going to go swimming....
