09.02.09

In a town where people do not look up, anonymity is achieved by wearing different shoes
Today the sky looks like a well-spread kaleidoscope* of blue morpho didius butterflies mounted on a yellow sheet. The sea looks properly blue, an achievement all of its own doing - no taxidermic interventions involved. The ground is being reclaimed by the distribution of ground-up ground from other land. People walk by looking at where their feet fall. Or are they checking me out? I have new morpho didus blue shoes**.

* [This might be a suitable (correct?) collective noun for butterflies] 
** [with a red stripe, hooray!]
