cooking, reading day
more recipes than essays,
day ends with folk songs

29

Finally! Class starts!
I return to doing things
involving grad school.

28

I'm off to find out
what it takes to recover
from a shitty day.

27

Art of bartering:
I'm becoming a Master.
Hard work, charm, and time.

26

a new equation:
comfort food + record store
= perfect store.

25

Finally, a hike.
Walk up hill to see city.
I like it up here.

24

go to work early
just then, the block's power's out
and stays out, all day

23

roommates riding bus
glad to have one in this place
makes home much nicer

22

could be daily life
rush one place to next, and next.
for me, just one day

21

Working odds and ends
She wants office one door down
I move, organize.

20

Into bartering:
I sell produce at market
for vegetables.

19

Back on broken bike
Fifteen minutes only now
Brakes not working so well

18

Catching up with friends
Which doesn't always happen
even when we try

17

it's an hour to beach
then three or so hours of still
then back on the bus

16

sometimes I wake with
most recent dream still moving
inside of my brain

15

spend hours on the bus
and try to sort out something
school, or work, something

14

eating leftovers,
bus route planning, sleeping well
attempt decompress

13

I let too much slide
I don't think it was my fault
But so not ok

12

Made a feast for friends
All the recipes were great
Definite success

11

In my mind, like so.
And then in real life, not so.
At least now I know.

10

Finally hanging
posters on my wall after
finding no wall studs.

9

Daily Pint Tonight!
It's oh nine oh nine oh nine
So we'll drink new beers.

8

plane crash in my dream
and yellow tent dropped from sky
with a clean up crew

7

2 dollar colt x
10 dollars in cash =
one drunk evening

6

Thirty-two Chevy.
I get it how Sunday drive
can be pretty nice.

5

One song can do it.
Thoughts of JSIII brings tears
at Orpheum show.

3

when I don't leave here
my mind shrivels up, angry
Why these empty days?

2

talking to my limbs
physical therapy time
which i truly love

1

Blurred by airplane haze
Land below out of focus
Like contact-less eyes
