driving to work.
stopped at a stoplight.
next to me is a dog. eyes closed.
head out the window.
sniffing like crazy.
happy. content.
nose wiggling away.

fall. and all that follows.
squash. gourds.
orange. blue. green.
warmth. leafs. rain.

4 months of my mom's curry.

4 months of my dad's jerk chicken.
4 months of cold mid-west weather.
4 months of a familiar studio.
