Mountains

In the morning when I'm still half asleep i like to gaze out my window.
The view is nothing to be envious of.
I can survey the road behind my house, the backs of houses opposite the road, the deck of one house, the lights of another.
The only thing about looking outside is the weather.
Sometimes when it's foggy, I like to look out, and pretend that i'm looking at the edge of the world.
Like there's nothing more beyond the fog.
Sometimes though, when it's just right and the clouds line up well enough with the rising sun, i like to pretend that there's mountains in the distance.
My region is awfully flat, and I've always wanted to look out my window and see mountains.
People must take them so for granted as the backdrop of their pictures and gazes.
One day i'll move to Alberta, or B.C. for the mountains.
