turns out this week’s theme is waiting. i am waiting for a few different developments which are just past-due, among them: the arrival of bureaucratic but important documents, feedback from the company i have been interviewing with, a decision from the lit mag i submitted to last summer (a series of 3 short stories, loosely based on a chaotic periodic in my 20s).
this is such a vivid description of the waiting, the uncertainty, the nervous energy. absolutely beautiful!
It feels serendipitous that I read this at the end of the day in bed
