lost to fantasy

i have kissed you a

3AM Thoughts // AKA “Haiku 63.”
MIND: La rêverie
I’m missing you extremely, but I feel curiously happy and serene.
I want to do nothing but sit about dreamily, thinking about you and
about the great strangeness of everything, and how good it is.
// Iris Murdoch, from a letter to Wallace Robson
MIND: Worthwhile Pursuits
I can’t lie, I’d rather be doing something else, I guess
Like making love or writing a poem
Or drinking wine on a tropical island…
The Process Of Explication // Dorothea Lasky
