dreary skies.

grave digging and tapping of raindrops.

rushed pace, all for nothing.

sidewalk makeup session.

cecilia's sinus clearing chili.

avoiding the pachuco glare.

backwards train ride.

rabid panda playlist.

dropped electronics.

disappointing santa fe-ian graffiti.

the prarie dogs no longer speak his name.

glob's of turquoise.

lisa's red door.

holy water and lengthy prayers.

twinkling candles.

future housewares.

heavy hats. 

steamy streets.

next time, o'keeffe.

alice cooper eyes.

bullseye

short, long weekend.

two days of

sunscreen and straw hats

horse snot

bleached bones

aching muscles

rain, wind, smoke

bruises in the morning.

til' the stars turn cold

monday: juror furor

5 AM.

blueberry scone. jittery, caffeine rush.

youngest in attendance.

butterflies and validated parking stubs.

alas, perhaps another case.

wednesday: on the hunt

raymundo de la fuente

20's fashion trends.

singing in the milky rain.

stained eyelids.

black ink, job history.
