when it's done i'll drink champagne to the lonely.

yesterday morning, i stubbed the end off my baby toe. i was walking toward the livingroom couch, sipping a cup of tea & stepped into a coffeetable trunk we rescued from a rainy midnight curbside. at first, it hurt so much that it didn't hurt at all. i could only watch the shock-white numbness of my raw, discovered skin. then a seeping flush of pink and candy-apple blood to blot away with papertowels.

my worn-in shoes rub and i am thinking not to limp.
