State of Mind: Providence

11/15/2013

0 Comments

 
Providence state of mind: India Point Park & Fox Point, the bay, decay & rebirth, water, filter, absorb, stormcatch talk with Jamie Topper and her hidden wind flute design, low howls, high cries, the boats, the flickering lights near midnight. Wickenden street, familiar: liquor, convenience, coffee, antiques, sex, breakfast, vintage shops. Piles of leaves like fire, blazing sun too, cooking epic meals while finishing each other's sentences. Will you look at that? Just look at this. Late night ghost notes, slipping into library space, which requires its own learning visa. Feverish grad school chats over kale and chickpeas with Emmy Bright, these days, waking up late, slow, easy. Providential.
