Chances are I’ll be gone by then

A gentle, bitter farewell this morning. I imagine by the time I step outside that the pile of crunchy brown leaves will not have budged from my windshield and in the bleary break of dawn I might still believe that the chill of an early November air will hold some promise of a bright new day. But a few minutes of uncivil traffic and eight hours of fluorescent lighting can shake that feeling off rather quickly. Still, sometimes all it takes is the rustle of a simple drum kit and acoustic guitar to strum up memories of why this time of year always feels so potent, like the first time you hear Nico singing in The Royal Tenenbaums. Change is in the air, I read in the paper, and this here is a nice, non-political ode to moving on.
