in spite of ourselves, we'll end up sittin' on a rainbow.

You make birthdays wonderful.


.em.

you are an incredible friend.
what a way to start a birthday.

a collection of birthday mementos
(recollections of magic, in fact)
yes, there may have been too much milk consumed.
but hey, it's switzerland? what the fuck.

a stream of birthday dance moves
starring, well, the one and only:
julius, baby of the world

background dancer:
"big sunnies em"
(as they call her)

who else could it have been, really?

and then, in the day to follow, the most extraordinary
packages wrapped in yarn and glitter,
enveloping
majestic beings from other lands
(no, i've never encountered mr.dean
but i am elated that he is now a part of my universe),
notes from far away,
love spilling through the seams,
a baby who can steal your heart
(into infinity and a bit beyond).

you have an ability to tip me over the edge
so that i fall,
end over end,
(down some kind of a rainbow waterfall)
into a turquoise pool of enormous smiles.

you have this effect - it's sort of what you seem to do.

thank you em. you absolutely turned my entire day into a whole series of magic tricks.
(and from so so far away)

how do you do it?
well, the imaginarium of course!

so, i give you a few treats from the farm.
the most wondrous place a gal' could go.

this here is sticks.
(em: meet sticks.)
he likes to herd. but im not a sheep, so it's pretty annoying.
he's sweet an'all.

this is mendel.
mendel was born in italy,
grew up in montreal
and now he's an organic farmer outside of savona.
he is absolutely one
of the sweetest people you
could ever even hope to meet.
the best.




to the left: soll, mendel's son.
he runs the show. he & mendel yell a lot.
still though, the best.

just a couple end of day sun rays
through the rye.
they've always been my favourite.

love always,
k.

p.s.
have a looksie loo at this little guy.
he works at the farm.
we recently discovered that he's connected to the ufos.
interesting times, em, interesting times.

p.p.s
phone call is in order?
what's going down on the eastern front?
i work until 7pm tomorrow night.
apres that?

xoxo and all the love,
all the way to michigan (far away).

night owl melodies (more).


dear em,

i am still in a juliosphere of temporal lucidity.
sleep will not come.
my brain is alive with a whirlwind of what ifs, whens, and wheres.

i miss you.
i think we would both agree that this a different kind of missing.
one that sort of sneaks up from behind and snips your achilles.
just a quick snip of course! - but a nasty one, nonetheless.

i know what you mean about the jokes - they bounce off empty walls.
ann arbor (no u) is too far away.
so are you.
so is j.worm, glow master (of the world).

today my eyes were hungry for all sorts of colours, so i will share
them.
(to be honest, i was writing little snap-shot-stories for you)


mermaid
etched in
the wall.
unexpected
beauty.
(the best
kind.)




suggestions?
yes,
please.











i like this little shadow dance.
the shadows tell a more elaborate story than the actual flowers do.
what does that tell?








plants can be cute - this one is proof.









stop light. somehow, just sitting there.
just like that.






p.s. i really like getting my hands dirty and i really hate dirt under my finger nails.






time machine.
where to go? when?
just spin a globe.
maybe spin a globe
with countries on it
that no longer exist?



...textures, from some time ago. (i think?)






love, k.
