i haven't written anything in about 3 weeks. i've been down in vancouver visiting my husband in that time.

wish i could say i haven't written because i've been too, ahem, busy with the spouse, but the truth is i've been too busy cleaning our messy place and fighting depression.

i'm not depressed abt being with husband; i adore him. but the place we rent is slowly killing me. #sometimeswritersblockisdepression

i can feel depression
settling over me
like a well-worn sweater
and i don't have the strength
to rip it off
yell
fuck off mate
it's summer
i don't have time for your shit

maybe a too-hot night
will wake me up
from its
soporific charms
