sometime over the snowed in days of december, i rediscovered the movie amelie (i own the vhs!) and how wonderful and witty and whimsical it is (you should watch it again) and sometime soon after, in the stillness of morning when sleep hasn't yet arrived (staying up til dawn becomes a bad habit of mine when responsibility is on hold) when my brain is halfway to dream land, i scribbled on a blank card:
first kisses
am laying here... in the wee hours of the morning - snow continuing to fall, blanketing the world - or my world - with its icy fingers. i'm thinking of amelie and her first kiss to nino. right corner of mouth. left neck under ear. right eye. repeat. i wish i had someone to be my nino.
then i woke up.
