Sketches and ideas in my notebooks and diaries.

I Remembered

A discombobulating figure with alcoholic drink

Watching like a lecherous old man in a book

A group a of partly naked figures gathered together

For every day

A trumpeter trumpeting

From the wicked

A person unzipping

Would like to be someone else
