im back in Boulder to spend Thanksgiving with my Girl of the Golden West. So i thought id share my sensory feast with you, a bit of a side dish of synesthesia to go with your turkey tomorrow.

The whispering year is gone./There is more room to live now.The once secret dawn/Comes late by daylight, and the dark unguarded goes.” —from Immortal Autumn, by Archibald MacLeish Its a little after 6 AM as i sit here with this glowing … Continue reading The Once Secret Dawn →
