i was upset about comet all day but i just saw him with a. and he wiggled happily. i got stung by a bee on the foot walking across the baseball diamond with lulu. i pulled the stinger out but the venom was already pumping through my blood and nerves and my skin tingled in a sexual way, or that's how my mind chose to read the shock. now my foot just throbs, in an asexual way. then coming back i saw two peregrines land on the top of each fire escape on the back of the building and stepped in the alley to get pictures and a driver scoffed but he didn't know there were peregrines or care frankly i imagine to him i was just a numbnut standing in the way of the automobile.
