they carry the bodies of the withered in their mouths

i am watching a little group of birds play in the tree outside my window. my housemate is making custard at 7am. i should be making my lunch too.
but the air is so rich right now! it's been raining, and it reminds me of long conversations with my father. the smell of the cold wet soil is hanging just by my window, and i know it's letting the chill in but that doesn't matter.
i have so many things to do. i have to finish uni assignments, i have to decide where i want to be on the planet, i have to catch a bus and i have to think hard about a lot of things.
but that's okay. when i can wake up and breathedeep and just generally enjoy the wonder in the world i think i'll be okay, no matter where i am.
