my blog is considering forgiving me

oh dear. a year has passed since i held this page.

as i slip in quietly between the sheets of "new post" and "publish now", firefly lies still, showing me its naked back, pretending to be asleep.

but i know how to push its buttons. i know where it likes to be touched.

there is a way to be felt. a way much truer than explanations.

longing is fair. sadness just is. but resignation, we don't do around here.

right baby?

shhh. okay. we'll talk in the morning.

but i can already feel you considering forgiving me...

Good to have you back! I think blogs are like tides we control. There may be a very long wait between each wave, but eventually one will come.
