dxxvii

“He was plainspoken” only looks good on a gravestone
along with something else like “He sold a lot of cars” or
“What complex eye movements!”

I rub the dandruff off the day, decide to walk to
North Beach for lunch.  Indian food.  Tonight
I’ll treadmill and weightlift.

Now that I have two presidents, the one in my heart
tries to understand.  “The sky’s the limit
for birds,” it says.
