As April decorated itself in unpleasant weather, fervor for summer decorated my bones. A deep nostalgia for the past summer grazed my feet.  For April, musically, I've been humming tunes I fell for, last summer, when I played in grassy meadows underneath a sunlit beam. I can remember wandering through fields of dandelions, with the sounds of The Tallest Man on Earth, and The Felice Brothers ringing through my brain.  One of my most beloved artists is coming here Tuesday, the tallest man on earth, and I have tickets for row two.  It's a wonder I can't sleep. Too tickled in my boots.

"So deep into the orchard, you will stumble
On the skins of snakes, so let me know
Your nerves will lose the road
And I will boil the curtains
To extract the drugs of springtime
But that unicorn, he just stirs up as a mule"
