another weeks end.

"Sadly, I part from you;
Like a clam torn from its shell,
I go, and autumn too."
— Basho (Narrow Road to the Interior) 
 

Last night Mr. D surprised me with a trip to my favorite museum in the District

where we listened to a lecture by photographer Tim Hetherington whose film, Restrepo, won the 

Grand Jury Prize at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival.

The weekend ahead is giving me a funny taste in my mouth

it feels heavy, and yet I feel a since of freedom in its very silence.

A chance to be numb even in warmth

I have filled it to the very brim with occupied time

and as the moments steadily beat along, their consistency brings much comfort.

Hurry home Mr. D.
