He loves her because she loves
the mornings,
when she wakes up she makes breakfast,
eggs sunny side up,
then she puts on andrew bird,
the song with the birds and then the violin comes,
he wakes up with her face pressed into his neck and the sound of birds in his bedroom. then she kisses his jaw and wraps her arms around him pulling their comforter close around them.
she likes falling asleep early in the night,
crawling into bed tired after a worthwhile day.
she likes to dance before bed,
loud music,
hair flying,
and then she falls into bed,
breathing heavily,
then more slowly,
eyes closing, "come to bed" he always has to study,
he comes to bed,
listens to her fall asleep,
and then the books.

Mr. Fitzgerald, Mr. Van Gogh, and Mr. Bird?
ReplyDeleteI am typically opposed to art that so directly involves or seems so obviously inspired by other works or other artists, but at least you have good (mm, fantastic) touchstones, and it is interesting.
