the tiny little flat on the second floor of an older brick house that i
currently call home holds onto the heat of the day for dear life.. trust me when
i say it is HOT here (melt). We do not have air conditioning (melt), only a
ceiling fan in the LR (melt). It IS hot. Unbearably so. I have the headaches and
the insomnia to prove it (melt).
This conversation around feeling the heat or cold as it were reminds me of the
two years I lived in Winnipeg (Canadian prairies)...flat open land..... if you
stand on the corner of Portage and Main in the centre of winter there...with the
wind chill factor whipping against your body, you can expect to be surrounded by
-60 degrees. The weather network give little warnings which flash red across the
sky that say "hey, if you are out longer than 30 seconds, your skin begins to
freeze." A comforting thought. The humour lies within the fact that some people
will tell you that you dont feel the cold out west because it is a "dry" cold.
The heat...well It's all relative...I havent slept properly in a while because
of it. I guess some people feel it differently than others. Or something.
Nevermind. Going back to bed now.
still melting magsie

And this loving is a drawing close,
a tuning in, an opening.
Until one perfect moment;
but how can it be expressed?
A receiving, an enfolding
as I cradle you in my arms.
Within my heart, within my soul,
You are my true love.
