Inner beauty doesn't get you free drinks
by Jolie JordanYou say to me (as if it was a bad thing)
“But love,
It rains all the time in Seattle.”
Surely you must know
I'm not afraid of a little water.
The sun slips up
knocking me over
this golden coast
“Don't we just have the perfect weather here everyday?”
Wake up,
you're in the middle of a drought.
But yes,
Perfect weather.
Every.
Day.
I'm hardly a nomad, or homesick in the least
But less trees
and more buildings
don't necessarily equal happiness. 11/08/2011 Posted on 11/09/2011
