Dear Wigleaf,

It is enough to address, stamp, and send this postcard. The white space suffices, says that I am here and I thought of you. I will not write of the place, people, food or climate. Nor say that I miss you. That I wish you were here. That I am sorry I left. Cardboard worlds could be made from such postcards. No, the blank white tablet is best. For I have yet to learn the language that we both can understand.
