I see old acquaintances at the corner store and we fantasize about crime and punishment

I read about NPD endlessly on Quora and not a single voice on the supermassive www thinks that she will ever change

I try to spell my street but the driver used to live in Greece and doesn’t need help with Homeric names

I read about astronomical speed and the 1:1 ratio of 4 billions years between earth forming intelligence and collision with the nearest approaching galaxy

I ask my Palestinian chauffeur for advice only to be told that freedom is the only thing worth dieing for

I read about volcano and Yellowstone and the federal act of god to phoenix the wolf, buffalo and trout

I ask the taxi man if I would like his job and he asks me if I’m lonely enough and wishes me good luck

I read the occult newspaper xerox and yelp review of the private institution that trained my assassin

I sit by the planet’s largest and shallowest raging lake wanting to unknow anything at all

I read my own words and laugh as if someone else got hurt

Motioned my cigarette lighter at the dry needled Christmas tree by the shop dumpster. Gave the boss a redeeming laugh with adolescent pyromania tales.

“I’m too old for this shit and it’s not even cold outside”

“I still have my teddy bears you don’t have to grow up”

“Yeah but plush toys don’t destroy?”

“…”

“…”

“Okay see you Monday!”

Govt sponsorship to quit cig & vanlife bid

This morning -

Doctor’s advice:

-stop buying the tasty american spirit blacks

-smoke the nasty lucky strike reds instead

-ween off by factors of five until you are at 0 for the Chinese new year

-nicotine gum will allow you to stay inside and write more

-you won’t stop drinking (as much) until you pass out on the float of your favorite parade at 50 yrs old like I did

-AA spiritual practice is for dumb assholes; you are the only higher power that has control

-you’re way too handsome to stay single for very long

This evening -

Tire kick meetup:

-road tested and recently featured in a high profile murder case

-she’s been trying to sell it for over a year but never does for sentimental reasons

-insisted on being beautiful and riding shotgun for my test drive

-mechanical query and business proposition quickly cleared way for personal anecdotes and future goals

-I went full throttle and she clutched the armrest

-we decided that we both need to leave the city

-really fun first date with a few thousands dollars at stake and no handshake
