history bookmarks tools help

in mid october we shortcut through the parking garage

and squeeze in a narrow bar where the game is muted

the drinks are cheap and no one feeds the jukebox

a shot glass falls off the bar and doesn't break

the yankees mount a six-run comeback

matt says something to make the whole place laugh

then while he's in the bathroom a woman

points her dslr at someone's draught beer 

quickly snaps the shutter and walks out

cereal boxes
fruit cores and kitty litter

the swallows from normandy are coming, the british

a spike drives through cheese
bone
skin
sheet
duvet

rust collects under iron bridges
frequently on his phone
he stacks free books outside
the public library

finally leaving his plate of cornbread, beans
and lettuce

swallows fear him
he's not going to stop you
from taking those books

a counter weight
rocks over the dish pit

he wants to collect your chopped head
off

he's got no tv
the swallows are his family
the books are for the swallows

in spring the house shifts
while i pee the door opens
behind me just got that feeling
i don't know how i know it

were we gathered somewhere good
how much longer?
breathing inside a bathroom
is weird but good you can hear
yourself 

water takes away the soap
anna wears the cam'ron t-shirt
pours us a shot of tequila 
and takes away the tequila
below the bar you can hear
the bottle clink but just see the nozzle

on the eastern shore of america's afternoon
all the fixtures turn chilly

a few letter magnets and a christmas card
in the dust pan
we made it all the way here

first splashes of a long night
hit the barbecue

when i got to work it was easier to let go


good tap chemicals
all top prospects

every night before bed mindkeys
deem it the flint

a special hill where lawn mowers
send chipped
'the train's empty' / 'no one is on the train'
'it's/that's because we're at the end of the platform'
'i'm following you'
'you just missed the other one'
'but that was going...'
'they both go to the same place'
'oh well / [silence]'

meebo was a chat client for the android

my friend's wife wakes up at 4am to pick lint up off the floor

his grandson is a 14 year old who makes thousands of dollars

reselling the latest nikes he buys him on the internet

this was a dream
Two ballers perch
in a tree, the shoulder
holes fit perfectly
around the wings.
Haslam attacks Jeremy
and you stretch out your
sleeve and tattoo
The first thing I do
when I leave the office
is look at the sky.
you saw it sit
near a player piano
and stare at the floor,
bleary eyed methane
rising from the arctic
permafrost saturates
the gauze wrapped
potato
