the weekend


The Weekend

people talking
more people talking
wishing
missing dreamtime
wanting to fade back into nothing
to drown in salt water
also
a damned fine hockey game


watching the hockey game,

watching people yelling,
getting drunk enough that they struggle to care,
look at him - he's forgotten about the game,
until everyone starts shouting,
he joins in with a whoop,
not knowing what happened.

don't pretend, friend.

...

I have been in the city for five days and I am turning into a grumpy, sour, unpleasant turd. Stay tuned.
