SOME THINGS
I.
My father has cancer. I was on my lunch break when my mother called. I forgot my apple core on the sidewalk where I was sitting in my haste to find a better place to cry.
II.
I’m almost done with my first year of graduate school. My life looks a lot different than it did a year ago, in ways that I wasn’t anticipating. This is mostly a good thing.
III.
I am in love. This is not new news, but something I have known all along. I reach for her in my sleep.
IV.
There’s nothing on the walls yet and barely any furniture in my room, but this new apartment feels more like home in less than a week than my last one did in nine months.
V.
Momentum, velocity.
