LOOK

A lone paper bag is blown erratically around, executing graceful pirouettes over the rooftops.

Big eyes follow the path of the bag, nose squashed against the clear glass. A name is called, and the little feet skip away, squeaky on the polished floor. The bag dances across the rooftops, unapplauded.

La Marina, food court at citicenter. Big Windows. View point.

  5. There's a mosquito lying on the floor.. dead and motionless.. still like my sleeping roommates.. moments ago it was flying around in the quiet air surrounding me, before an irritated blow made it rest in peace at an angle of 77 degrees from my bed.. Death is, unavoidable.

    Ah! I'm inspired. :P
