may, and i got a pink feeling in my chest. said goodbye to some people tonight - "have a good graduation." i half-smile, and wish that i brought a camera. "one day i'll be in some cubicle and i'd like to have a picture of you taped on my wall, you'd be holding onto a sign that says 'escape.'"

i want to unpeel these days slowly, but i won't. never. let's be anything but cautious. let's gnaw on today, rip apart the sunlight with two front teeth, shred the wind apart with bare hands, savor each glint of moonlight with a tongue, devour everything, every spec of dust, every breath of air, everything, and please, no doggy bags, we're not saving anything for later.
