brownies in a box, individually wrapped,
flavors like “Peanut Butter,” “Caramel,”
“Espresso Nib,” and “Coconut,” a
snowball stressball (I didn’t lie),
a green dragon, a pee-colored

Blue Moon (employment agency),
interview at 101 California, sirens

stapler, Blackberry, two portraits by

a San Francisco streetmap, two
calendars (different years),
two journals (over six years apart),
