Break.
I'm on break.
From school.
Jezzie and Tika are sitting on top of the couch in the sunlight.
The radio is playing on our huge speakers,
KT Tunstall.
"Suddenly I See."
This song makes me tap my feet.
I should do something.
But what.
This is what:
Look outside at the ice packed onto our roof,
coated with a jacket of snow.
The sun shining over the whole deck.
The red, velvet roses on the counter.
The bags of valentine's.
The toy car.
The play kitchen.
A plaid, fleece blanket to my right.
The rings on my fingers.
My relatives/ancestors, all hanging on the wall.
Me.
As a baby.
Smiling.
Delaney eating ice cream.
Ian cheesing.
My Mommy and Daddy in a wedding picture.
A deflated spongebob balloon on the ground.
A dusty calculator on the coffee table.
A red and silver beaded coaster.
My green nails.
The cheerios on the counter.
I think I need a vacation.
From Alaska.
