Friday night I was walking back from a show at the Hi-Dive with Sarah, about 1:30 in the morning. Saw four police cars all lit up take a right on the corner right in front of us, so we went over to watch. There was a car stopped a half-block down, and there were cops […]
Hey,
So I saw this documentary in Portland back in November, and it was great. It was all about corn farmers in the United States and the last thirty or forty years of the corn industry — sounds like a real snoozer, right? It’s not. It explains obesity, diabetes, the current state of vending machines, 7-11s, […]

Hey y’all,

p.s. this is my seasonal update about the stuff I did this summer at work.
June 9 I came home to these shoes by my porch / stoop.
And this afternoon, 84 days later, their owner came back to claim them.
He didn’t speak much english, and he said he had been in the detox center on the corner of my block. I believed him because:
He wore a hospital-style info bracelet.
He was […]
Salina I’m as nowhere as I can be / would you add some somewhere to me, aww Kansas I’m kneeling, aw Kansas please.
Cleveland I ain’t never felt something so strong / been believing the words to my songs, Ohio I’m leaving, Ohio I’m gone.
…
Poughkeepsie hang up the telephone / I won’t answer your phone […]
