South African Errr... / / *stares blankly at screen* / / Not much to say, really. I am a human female, currently 26 years of age, living in a small town where nothing much happens but everybody gossips about it nonetheless. Right now it is 6:34pm on a Sunday evening, and the wind is going mad outside, so I am in here wearing my fluffiest dressing-gown and trying to write this profile. Which is basically done now, because I am going to go make myself a sandwich.
One upon a time, there was a meeting of the minds, A hot frisson of hunger; an electric tingle down the spine. Of course, we've had insulation put in since then. It's practically paid for itself already, hasn't it darling?

On Love, and other High Ideals
There is a reckless quality to Street bathed in street- light, hiding shadows In plane sight angles shift behind other angles, deliberately Obtuse as if to say 'Here I am!' Here I am Not (look again)

Somerset St, 2:34am
There is a tapping on the glass of windows closed against the night A morse-encoded love-affair between a moth and the fluorescent light

A Tragedy of the Classical Sort
Jacarandas explode into purple in empty streets at dusk. They feel the heat like I feel it and I wish I could cover myself in flowers like they do because they love this town like I love you Quietly, and with flowers.
