Dear east-coasters,
If you live near Buffalo, Somerville, Cambridge/Boston, Providence or Cleveland/Pittsburg, go to The Detroit Party Marching Band show, and make sure my boyfriend is safe on his tour. And also just enjoy their music because it actually is terrific.

I want mail. I don’t even mind what it is, really. It can be lists of complaints, or a postcard, or a screenplay, or love poems or music or a drawing, or a message in a bottle. I just miss getting letters. Let me know if you want to be pen pals.

I’ll follow you
just like a child

I’m headed to
the road is long

It’s so strange that after somebody dies, they’ll never again be a “me” or an “I” or a “you,” unless somebody’s faking.

C'est mercredi.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, I wake up at eight fifteen. I get dressed, I maybe drink a small glass of juice, I gather my things, and I walk under the overcast sky to my stop on fourteen mile, near the telephone pole Michelle and I painted. It was the middle of the night when it happened, and very cold; we’d found the several cans of bright-colored housepaint from her...

Stranger: You can choose not to be a whisper in human memory, rather, a boisterous shout. A roar.
