take the time.
there's this moment in "i am trying to break your heart" where jeff tweedy starts playing "poor places" on an acoustic guitar and the chords make it hard for me to swallow. with the time change, it's no longer dark when i wake up and this morning there is all this light filtering through the tree branches. i feel a little empty, a little buzzing. i can never tell if it's "my father's voice trailing off" or "dreaming of." oh, "someone ties a bow in my backyard to show me love" just makes me want to carry loops of string in my pockets just in case.
