escapism

"She wiped away the memory of Florentino Ariza, she erased him completely, and in the space that he had occupied in her memory she allowed a field of poppies to bloom"

Somehow, red has inadvertently become my favorite summer color...this is quite mysterious to me. I have never liked red before, and now suddenly it's filling up my Idyll images folder and creeping its way into my closet!

Poppies are my summer flower.

I've also been listening to Karen Elson's album on constant repeat all day...if music had a color, The Ghost Who Walks would be the shade of a poppy field.
