Blog #20: #36 from the packet

on the verge of falling asleep:

I lay here
Eyes closed and ears open
I hear the squeaking of her curling iron open and close
It is morning
Don’t want to get up

But I have to pee

  2. Isn't it the worst, nestled in your warm bed, underneath the covers, like a bear in a cave. Oooh damn, time to pee, and the cold. I loved it, simple and so vivid too, nice imagery.

  3. I love the sensory detail about the opening and closing of the curling iron. It lets me know multiple things: you live with another female and the curling iron might not be new.
