Elemental

We travel together 

And see tomorrow bloom

The elements converge

And all roads lead to you

I was thumbing through some tunes this weekend. I've always liked this song. #dannyssong #kennyloggins

Spoiled

Eros was perched on your shoulder
Plucking his lyre and quietly
Composing a song for you
Spoil him with words
And everything will fall into place

Urban Loneliness

I stumbled across this CBC podcast today. Urban loneliness is something I've been thinking a fair bit about over the last couple of months. It turns out that Vancouver is infamous for it. You'd think that a city populated by a couple of million people would facilitate inclusion. Apparently we fail horribly at getting to know our neighbours.

This is a good listen. Check it out.

I'm going to make a point of saying hi to people a lot more often.

Sunset

Drop your troubles
On top of the sun
And watch them sink
Into the Pacific

Eavesdropper

She sat quietly with a dirty martini 

And welcomed us to her empty table for six

Mindlessly flipping pages in her magazine 

And eavesdropped on our chat about trips and jazz and love

While we waited for our whiskey to finish

Then, with an eyeful of hope

She gathered her coat,

Touched your shoulder

And said, "Thank you"
