here comes the sun.

No wonder people once worshiped the sun with its incomparable majesty that wakes the whole world every day without fail, that sustains life, delivers warmth... and lots of other good stuff.

Assuming it's not June - August in North Carolina, there's nothing quite as soothing as feeling the warmth of the sun on your face. It's like a big warm hug from the universe that seems to just make everything better. Cleansing. Reviving.

However, if it is June, July, or August in North Carolina or a neighboring southern state, forget this whole little visual pictorial of sweet sunny bliss I have painted for you and think instead of BLISTERING HELLFIRE.

And know that beyond a shadow of a doubt, you will find me cowering indoors where the air conditioner is churning full blast. Damn the Vitamin D.

"Some days you find yourself in the middle of a cactus patch
feeling partially crystalline, partially amorphous
in molecular structure: Like crazy old weather beaten plastic.


And before you know it, the morning sun offers
a notion of what it feels like to have a porcelain soul
in a ceramic world."
