Petrichor

There is laundry waiting in the corner,

and grief impatient beside it.

And emails. Dishes. Errands ad nauseam.

I attempt exhausted calculations

of deciding which needs

must remain unmet until "tomorrow."

What can wait just a tiny bit longer?

"Tomorrow" has become

a very crowded place.

Sometimes, probably too often,

I imagine dissolving.

Not dying. I don't have time to die.

And I couldn't do that to my dog.

Just becoming rain

for an afternoon.

Something without decisions.

Without a sore spine

everyone expects to remain upright.

My body keeps speaking a language

I keep pretending I don't understand.

The jaw that won't unclench.

The shoulders trying to become ears.

The shallow breath

that never believes

the next one is coming.

Every muscle holding a meeting

I forgot how to adjourn.

I wonder what version of me exists

beneath all this bracing.

If she is still there.

If she remembers how to laugh

without holding back the snort she hates.

"Glad" still comes to visit.

"Happy" is an old friend I've lost touch with.

I hope we can reconcile when the ceiling

stops threatening to introduce itself to the floor.

Tomorrow,

I will wake before my strength does.

I will lace responsibility

back through my ribs,

lift another impossible morning,

and pray it feels lighter than it is.

None of the "tomorrow" tasks will get done,

and by afternoon, or even just 9:30,

I'll wish I was rain again.

Overlock Stitch by @clothes_reetzy

[thatisuseful]

Damn, that's useful

[fluidstatick]

Finally a hand sewing tutorial on a hemline that isn't just the ladder stitch! the ladder stitch disappears when you tighten it, but it's not meant for hemlines because it breaks really easily! The overlock stitch is more stable, so it holds much longer, and it won't pucker or warp the fabric!

OH HELL THE FUCK YES

[aftertherainstopss]

I hope you never outgrow being excited by bookstores, listening to the rain, flowers and finding the perfect mug.
