waving flags

i looked out the window, first at the changing sea and then a bird flitting across the yard to a limb. i watched the new grass coming.
i left my chamber and went into another, looking out that window to the west. i watched fat little robins tweet at each other and bigger starlings eating bird seed from the feeders in the trees. so many trees which i love. i was watching the world and trying to find the small things. everything is small here but the smallest ones are the best parts.
but the place you are. when you see it and it makes you feel small and this place, big, it at least gives me a sensation of "i can't wait to see the rest of you. in your entirety."
i want to meet the world and breathe every air there is.
sit in trees and take pictures of birds, watch the sky change every day and be a part of the way things are without interference to see how nice it is.
british sea power and kimya dawson, for now.
