Some Days You’re the Cigarette, Some Days the Smoke
The city wakes up hungover, sunlight slapping cracked sidewalks and coffee brewing in greasy spoons where nobody asks your name. Today isn’t about glory or disaster—just the slow churn of hours, a thousand little thoughts flicked into the gutter and swept away by wind that smells like old books and cheap perfume. It’s a day for letting go of what weighs you down, even if all you do is stare at the ceiling and dream about something better.
