She egresses from a pool of blue and straight into the colorless, Californian dregs of summer.
Each passing plane reminding her how stuck she is.
The question remains whether some people are doomed to just survive, a yearning for freedom following them around, until they learn to numb themselves to such aspirations.
Faraway trains pass by.
The sound in their whistles knowing the events she will litigate with herself for years to come until it empties the contents of her soul.

She egresses from a pool of blue and straight into the colorless, Californian dregs of summer.
Each passing plane reminding her how stuck she is.
The question remains whether some people are doomed to just survive, a yearning for freedom following them around, until they learn to numb themselves to such aspirations.
Faraway trains pass by.
The sound in their whistles knowing the events she will litigate with herself for years to come until it empties the contents of her soul.
