Glósóli

Now that you're awake
Everything seems different
I look around
But there's nothing at all

Put on my shoes, I then find that
She is still in her pyjamas
Then found in a dream
I'm hung by an anticlimax

She is with the sun
And it's out here

But where are you...

Go on a journey
And roam the streets
Can't see the way out
And so use the stars
She sits for eternity
And then climbs out

She's the glowing sun
So come out

I awake from a nightmare
My heart is beating
Out of control…

I've become so used to this craziness
That it's now compulsory

And here you are...

I'm feeling...

And here you are,
Glowing sun...

Where are we going, Walt Whitman? The doors close in an hour. Which way does your beard point tonight?
(I touch your book and dream of our odyssey in the supermarket and feel absurd.)
Will we walk all night through solitary streets? The trees add shade to shade, lights out in the houses, we'll both be lonely.
- "A Supermarket in California" by Allen Ginsberg

Meet The Aislers Set...


Song:
One Half Laughing

I'm Home

Fed the chickens
Smelled the cows
Visited Grandma
Planned a party
Saw the arboretum
Bought a cactus
Sipped my tea
Laughed with my sister
I'm home
I'm so happy to be home!

Today's dance around with happiness song:

How I feel about working at Wal-Mart...

A little harsh, I know. But you try it sometime.
