vulture

I was standing on my balcony... okay, I was smoking a cigarette. I cheap, menthol cigarette in the cold. A pretty dumb situation anyway, but then, all of a sudden, a vulture swooped down about twelve feet away from me. Then he went back skyward on the updraft, but it was erie. You don't normally see those things so close, especially not in flight. He looked right at me. It was very Poe- like a symbol of my self destruction being like "Hey, don't forget about me- I'm still here." Freaky.

The last thing I wrote before this thing. The next thing I wrote after this.
