This is the 5th edition of “Things That Could Not Be Improved,” a grouping of things that need not be, or could not be, improved.  I’m not a proponent of perfection, but I love seeing such well conceived and well crafted artworks.

“Your Heart Is An Empty Room” Lyrics by Death Cab for Cutie (excerpt)

Burn it down ’til the embers smoke on the ground
And start new when your heart is an empty room
With walls of the deepest blue

Home’s face, how it ages when you’re away
Spring blooms and you find the love that’s true
But you don’t know what now to do
‘Cuz the chase is all you know
And she stopped running months ago

And all you see
Is where else you could be
When you’re at home
And out on the street
Are so many possibilities
To not be alone

Thank you to everyone who visited yesterday - Sept. 11th, 2007 – the most visits this year.  Forgive me, because I’m an overly emotional person and things like that make me cry – thinking I’m not alone in caring probably too much about all these things.
