pancake-less


The silence is broken by the pouring rain, the clang of kitchenware, the music from my laptop, and the dogs. The earth breathes out cold, damp air as the skies cry out in response and my sensitive feet freezes over. The absence of electricity drowns down my enthusiasm at getting my schoolwork done. The impending doom of Monday is hanging over my head and that dragging feeling of having to go to work makes the lazy monster creep out of its shell desperately trying to weaken my resolve at productivity. Damn you weather.

I absentmindedly sing along to the music. The angry wind starts lashing out and the trees respond with the same intensity. Knowing no fear, I sit calmly and listen. A sense of blissfulness wraps around me while the cold air bathes me in pain. The door slams.
