Tonight's Poet Corner: Introspection

Ahhhh, Valentine's Day. The first one I ever actually spent with my girlfriend in person. Where do I even begin?

Welp, I went to work, then gave my girlfriend a cute blanket with a kitten hoody, then promptly screwed up on getting her flowers for her opening night performing with Marin Onstage. And tomorrow we're going to have a late Valentine's Day brunch that will most likely include mimosas. Because I love my girlfriend very, very, very, very, very, very much.

...That was easy. I'm going to bed.

Writer's Quotation of the Night:

Writing fiction is the act of weaving a series of lies to arrive at a greater truth.
- Khaled Hosseini

Have a great night and a great weekend, everyone.

Addendum: Okay, so one thing I should mention to my handful of readers is that I will be in Cazadero from Monday until Wednesday of next week, meaning I will not be putting up OneWord blurbs for Monday and Tuesday and I will be putting up Poet Corner poems a little late in the game. Okay, that's it. Bye!

Today's OneWord: Statues

Why were the statues going white, and why was the rain cascading in sheets? I tried to find solace by the window, but the world outside had become nothing but glass. Blankets of water blurred the semblance of life that I stretched my mind to detect. Near me, my lover was asleep on the divan with wine pooling across her lap. Her curls lay in wet swaths around the warm nape of her neck. The statues would crumble in due time. The deluge was impending. We both would drown.
