In the fern bar, a hand tries a knee, as if unplanned.
—Albert Goldbarth
“What kind of knives?”
“Just regular knives. For chopping.”
Later, at the Genius Bar, I’m recommended
NeoOffice and VersionTracker.com—
both work like peaches.
Over Indian food at Gaylord,
much talk of depression and anxiety,
and the right pills for the jobs.
Two loads laundry.
Lawrence Ferlinghetti and leftover quiche,
Mulholland Drive and Pyaasa,
chewing gum, turning pages,
crack of dawn to dead of night.
