perhaps some night
as i sit sleepless
sipping smoking
the door will bang
and i will hear your boots
scuffing their way
out of one darkness
into another

Balboa Bruce - rescue cats of Los Angeles. He’s a good boy.

Done

I’m cleaning house, it’s a bungalow so it’s not that hard. So many are fake, I’m just happy I’ve found my bluesky family.

It’s become a cultural icon, one that will rot and fall apart on the pavement. Can’t happen soon enough.

Happy to see you here

Good to see you here. Can't wait for tonight's story or poem.

Just got here. Nice to see you here too.
