the everyday adventures of sabrina

Known to some as calendula, possessed of some healing capabilities — but not the ones I require.

…

but still pretty.

note for future reference: no matter how good one’s mood or fine the compliments, consider grossly falsifying the data one gives to strange men outside the jewel at 2AM.

One of the things I love the most about chicago is how, if I so choose, I may walk seven miles home in perfect comfort, in perfect confidence that if I change my mind there’s a bus to carry me where I want to go, in perfect confidence of my safety, in perfect confidence.

in perfect confidence that everything is all right with the world.

that all is all right, all is all right, and all manner of things will be all right.

so this is the new year,
and I don’t feel any different
the clanking of crystal
explosions off in the distance — in the distance.

so this is the new year
and I have no resolution
it’s self-assigned penance
for problems with easy solutions.
