Well,
My best friend Steve
Bought himself a Cadillac
I said please drive it back
You don’t need a thing like that
It’s a hearse
Its cursed
Goodnight nurse

ride crash ride splash


canal street
the fete dead with us sitting down
napkin alps and everything
but if the fruit flies graze the plates
it wouldn't be a shame

tony sometimes
speaks different languages

thrown in
with his own

and sometimes
we ask him

to trade
his tongue out

so we
could understand him

more, but he says that
would hurt far too much
___


i didn't realize
yous camera
was staring at me

until i saw myself
in a polaroid
in your book

a year later

___

please excuse me
for smoking

your last cigarette
i know they're
more comfortable


under your pearl snaps
