cdlxxxv

Dear My Obsession,

I have a new position.
Six years ago I got
half of this, so everything’s
justified. I just wanted you to know.

Also, don’t forget what level you are on.
Although I don’t mind the stars. I got heart
insurance, too.

I will go to Yosemite for the annual office retreat.
There’s a new guy. I think he’s from Chicago.

Would you like me to
shut this up? I know you don’t like coffee

nor The Hotel Wentley Poems
but you must give me some allowances.
We will go to Santa Cruz
via Palo Alto

and never wind up anywhere.
Do this. Trust me.

That’s that,
Older Still
