Inside Starbucks: An ever-changing community of strangers who share tabletops and wifi.

Mondays Consists Of:
Morning coffees. Going 70 mph in a 60 mph zone. French music. Messy hair + ball caps.

I picked up the little book on the table and flipped through its pages. Soft, smooth, and glossy. All the hard work of people's efforts paid off. Published in a bounded publication. As I flip through to one of the last pages, I recognize a small poem, one that I wrote when I was a different me. My poem got published. I got published. I'm a published poet and I didn't know it.
I guess there is a first time for everything.

F R I D A Y

Somedays I like to sit in my bed and pretend to be a literary sophisticate who lives in Paris and writes for a living. Today was that kind of day. 

S A T U R D A Y

You are my sunshine. My only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are grey. 

Today's rhythm.
