As I was driving down Newburgh, I came upon an accident scene, nothing major just a fender-bender. A girl at my school was involved whom I have never met before and was devestated, for the person she hit drove off. As I approached behind her car, all I could see were soccer mom's and angry people driving their over priced SUV's, speeding around her and glaring as if she were killing small puppies, simply because she was in an accident and didn't move her car. She was hysterical, sitting in the left turn lane by her car. I felt sorry for those people who kept speeding by, making their cars make that annoying VROOM VROOM noise impatiently. They obviously were too balled up in their own lives, to care that this young girl was hysterical and her car's front totaled. With a heavy sigh, I put my emergency lights on, parked in the lane behind her and went outside to join her trying to console her. We've never met eachother before and I still don't know her name...but I'm sure she appreciated the fact someone took the time out of their overly scheduled day just to sit with her, and make sure she was okay. As you would imagine, people began to shout and honk at me for caring...speeding by as if they were sending the world's worst insult at me...I just totally pitty those people in those cars...
After about 10 minutes, I drove home. Greeted by my cats as no one was home, as usual. A small sign was placed on the refridgerator door as I walked by reading "Went to Heather's. She's having an anxiety attack...pick up dad @ 4:30 -heart- Mom. I fed the fish." Went to make myself a sandwhich, and realized we were out of bread again. Looked at my cats as they basked in the sun like lions in the savanah, pet them for a few minutes until the black and white one bit me. Rejected, I came onto the computer and turned on my favorite DDR songs. My sister called, sounding absolutely exhausted asking if my mom was home, and of course she was on her way to see her...which she got annoyed at, for she wasn't having an anxiety attack. Talked for a few minutes about her kittens, then fell into an awkward silence and said I had to go shower (which I do.) Sitting here at the computer, typing. Hearing the soft melody of DDR songs in a medley and my fingers working on the keyboard. Extremely odd day, though boring. Beautiful outside... |

I envy how your very simple words are still so poetic.
And I love your comparisons to everything.. like your cats being lions. How beautiful.
