Text
(How to Live in the Modern World)
forget about streets with names follow the fireflies into the thicket smell the damp earth
let the darkness inside
let the night steep
let the world drift off to sleep as you become nothing
but the brush of wings, ancient mating dreams,
the soft blink of amber light
-Julia Klatt Singer
