Day 16

As is traditional for Nanowrimo, here's a link to 'livin' on a prayer' to signify that I am more then halfway through the month:

Also this poem was clearly inspired by 'birdhouse in your soul' by they might be giants:

Birdhouse in your soul

I build the birdhouse in my soul out of the twigs and spare bits of fuzz I find in the corners of my ribcage.
I build it out of the lines of my lover's hands
I stick it together with the syrup-y sweetness of the warm sun streaming in my morning window, kissing me awake
I build until my hands ache with the fastidious care
I fit each twig into the pattern like I'm coming home
