cake icing and bay windows

02 January 2003 - 16:44

<<--unravel * reintegrate-->>

my only memory in black and white:

two years ago, she and i were wearing dresses. we picked a piece of cake that was a work of art, ruffles and flowers in icing. ate it with plastic forks off china. we were near the mission. the building was white with bay windows. a hum of electricity. a music box with a ballerina inside(?).

i think the moment was too beautiful, and i can't fill it out in color. almost all of san francisco is like that for me: so beautiful my memories distort it. so beautiful it slows shutter speeds, overexposes itself or something in me that responds to it so helplessly.

so much more to say, but we're about to go to first thursday...
