Two's Day

Tuesday night midnight phone calls, scientific epic poems on the nature of things, genetic experiments and low dose radiation. My first visitor, the chinatown bus, hometown coffeeshop where you first met, and you're still thinking of each other. Due dates due dates due dates. Lists of things you are acknowledging that you are ignoring but you do have a list of them. Loveshackin' 100 mile bicycle races meeting the Black Eyed Peas, doing your thing, spreading your wings, crossing the border, ultraviolet and infrared, artificial versus unnatural.

Wish it was Sunday

Not lunes, not España. Sleeping in, skipping class. Registration, a semester full of early mornings. Avocados, mangos, mushrooms, asparagus, onion, garlic, eggs, grape nuts. El Bordo, IVF, vectors, rookies. History of the Journal of Biology of Boring Nonsense. Athletes getting violent. Days of silence, paper thin walls. Backyards and big basements, bright colored walls, big closet space.

Summer in the city, business casual, Brooklyn.
