closure

i woke up this morning
at some ungodly hour
sun was coming up
andy on the radio
talking bout multi-culti diversity
some ain't-we-wonder-full type of ish
put me in a foul mood.
streetcar. subway. work
seven point two five unionized hours
of blinking reading & telephoning
subway. streetcar.
csi marathon
til i fell asleep

today
i didn't think of you at all.
