Kitty Car Alarm

Her ceaseless meowing keeps me up throughout the night. Who is in charge? Maybe I should thank her: now I will remember dreams of daydrinking with new friends in my childhood room.

Fountains and Squares

How many would meet you by the fountain in the square if it was actually there. There are so many of these and never enough. An after hours beer outside of your apartment when the dogs and their owners are sleeping. A cigarette after you quit smoking. And of course, your feet with the pennies on a hot day.

Peter Pan Bonanza


Sometimes going far can get you
it did last week lost inside each
other wrote ourselves outta there
how can a bus full of gaming trivia
and dunkin’ mcdonalds go away
from anything when it’s there again
when every newspaper reads
multinational bloods and crips with
red, white and blue as something separate
we drink and write not about it while
always writing about it
hit me in the head with a pun or
a beer bottle or anything but me or them
it’s five o’clock somewhere bulldozers
mass burial party lots of skin
we sleep it off for a new headache
and stay right
where we are because there are
always girls and music

Back to Boston

I've returned from a city where I couldn't understand the language to a city where I can't understand the people.
