Rumors (press upstairs)
Gods, people
w/in a few weeks equipment
(indulgence, prohibition)
Out from poverty & also
back out of all this affluence
Killed by it
to other forms:
wild parties, stairway scenes

We missed the Juan Pascoe talk last night, because San Antonio parking always wins, but I plan to catch the exhibit before it comes down. In the meantime, Miguel Tejada-Flores' post will keep us company.

That coastal few, happily bidding
on into some winding curve
From trying to bring it on now
(death, fucking mirageless)
for better than ninety pages
Phrases, not unordinary, same
