&quot;A thin layer of trust had formed in my mind, like a scab.&quot; <br /> <br /> &quot;I preferred albums to the more modern eight tracks. Albums came with sleeves which reminded me of clean underwear.&quot; <br /> -Augusten Burroughs

I always thought the sky was another world.
In a universe,
No, a planet,
Where nothing had to be explained,
Where we could be the clouds all fluffy and white
different images and then stars of the night.

The sky was a different world,
That I think,
I think like a bird,
Flying in the Sun's watery ink,
spilling all over the city.
The city speaks
it says, to the sky, "we don't care what you think."

But, I am still flying and fluttering in the air.
