sacrelicous and the elderly russian neighbor.
old russian neighbor
she speaks no english
I speak no russian
our cigarette addictions
transcending language barriers
in that once every day
she waves at me from her porch
and I likewise from mine
like primitive signals
across the asphalt stream
that is the road between us.
no words to drive wedges
of ideological rifts.
no mispeakings to speak of
just friendly waves.
no real communication either
mind you, but that's not the point.
it's just like we're saying:
"hey, I'm still alive!"
"that's awesome, me too!"

My neighbor and I have the same relationship as well, except he speaks English, used to be my high school janitor and he sort of scares me. I must write sometime about my "weird homeschooled girls across the street" ask Mike about them
aren't "weird" and "homeschooled" synonyms of eachother?
I think Zyniac's homeschooled neighbor girls are cute. But we all know I'm weird.
PS: Nicely done, Sac.
