Friday

If I were Mrs. Mclean.

I would own every outfit from Anthropology. I would get lipo on my tummy. I would pay off all my debt and never take out another student loan. I would finish school and work for the Humane Society. I would be a famous mormon. I would convert Aj and then the rest of the boys starting with Brian. I would swim daily. I would get extensions. I would buy expensive organic food. I would volunteer all day. I would take voice, painting and horse riding lessons. I would keep horses. I would have a beach home. I would hire someone to clean my car weekly. I would get massages weekly. I would never see a centipede in my house again. I would build up local animal laws. I would work with under-developed countries to improve their animal welfare programs. I would put all my sisters through college. I would buy my parents a house. I would travel. I would never do laundry again.

Oh wow. You would do couple massages with AJ. Fo 'sho. And you'd have lemon bars daily, and pay someone to make your live the life food. Ah the life. Why can't we be millionaires?

When you put it that way my dear Karlee, I see what you mean. If that's what you get when you marry AJ, then you really are perfect for each other. But my two cents worth: you have to convert before getting married. Please don't explode.

love after love

The time will come when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say
sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger
who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread.
Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life...

Take down the love
letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs,
the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit.
Feast on your life.

~Derek Walcott
