seeing + making



after class today, i went walking around downtown. as soon as i got out of the subway, i looked up, entranced by the blue of the sky. there was a flash. it didn't make any sense for there to be a flash in the sky. there was another. i stood on the corner, waiting, watching. it came back, just a little farther away. it disappeared. it came back again.

it was a flock of birds. they were so high up that they were invisible—until the light of the afternoon sun caught the white feathers under their wings.

this isn't done, but it's something. getting back to making.

the word for today is lucky.
