Road Trip!

Wow, he needs more stuff than we do.

Simon and Merwin are off to Upstate, NY to stay with my parents for the night in preparation for their mini cross country road trip beginning tomorrow morning.  "Mini" isn't really accurate.  Simon, my mom, and Merwin are hopping in my mother's Honda Fit and driving to Northern Wisconsin, which will take about 20 hours.  I, on the other hand, am hopping into a cab and taking a plane to Northern Wisconsin which will take about 4 hours.  It's a long story.  


Separation

Your absence has gone through me
Like thread through a needle
Everything I do is stitched with its color
