Eating grief at 3 a.m

Eating grief at Bickfords. The mugging, Times Square, 1973. Green hatred in a little room. Abandoned warehouses. Father knows best-Mother does the rest. Transcendence. Curiosity killed the cat. Mashed potatoes. Mrs. Plant. Capal tunnel syndrome. The suburbs, 1962. Morning birdsong. You know its tough being a writer. Kentucky Fried Chicken. I tried to frame a river. Harvard Square Theater: the last picture show. I know Bernie, I can get you in. Postal worker. Spring, this ain't a love poem. It is late and the fruit is bad. Disappearing from the block.
