orgami's Diaryland Diary

hungry but happy

food bank today
the ice was so cool
the footsteps frozen into
twisted shapes
lit up by the morning sunshine
all full of snow and dirt
snot and dogshit

and the black birds are back
those big things that flap around
with their whistling wings
and their croaking voices
echoeing off what passes for "sky scrapers" here in the N BAY

my bag of goods are beside me
Christmas wiped us out
but we are living on love and hope
and everything else that is
sacred between two caring people
