fortune,
not in a pay cheque.
summer,
on a sunday morning subway ride.
Tag: quote of the day
one-hundred-fifty-nine.
you know what you know because:
someone before you
taught, paved, led, dreamed.
stay humble.
one-hundred-fifty-seven.
is it still “giving up”

“on which nights are you restless,
tuned into every toc of the clock
and every scratch of the cat?”
well, on the nights my eyes are closed,
but i can see through the lids
and listen to every crack and creek.
well, on the nights when i can feel
the draft from the vent
like waves from the sea.
well, on the nights when i am laying,
but my brain is moving
on its own two feet.
