When you’ve lived in a place for a long, long time and the place has morphed from funky college town to fancy high tech hub, there’s some grief and surprise and a fair amount of complaining from everybody who lived here back in ‘the day.’ But honestly, not a day goes by that I am not grateful for my life in Austin, my luck and friendships and memories. All the beautiful places and fun things to do. The trails. The sunshine. The wildflowers. It’s morphed all right, but so have I.

Haiku 24

I can read this map
with my eyes closed, my feet bare
and find my way home
