we were just pretending
"I guess I like that idea that you could pretend yourself into new feelings and new relationships. Obviously I'm a big pretender. but the kind of leap where it's almost like some kind of science fiction thing happens. Like we were just pretending, and then what's this? We actually have new powers now, and we see each other differently, and in fact all of life has suddenly tilted. I'm going for that everyday, personally."

it’s unlikely that a decent poem is in me
tonight
and I understand that this is strickly my
problem
and of no interest to you
that I sit here listening to a man playing
a piano on the radio
and it’s bad piano, both the playing and
the composition
and again, this is of no interest to you
as one of my cats,
a beautiful white with strange markings,
sleeps in the bathroom.
I have no ideas of what would be of interest to you
but I doubt that you would be of
interest to me, do don’t get
superior.
in fact, come to think of it, you can
kiss my ass.
I continue to listen to the piano
this will not be a memorable night in my
life or yours.
let us celebrate the stupidity of our
endurance.
