swans and dogs and beautiful poetry

no other way out
Streets of Minneapolis by Bruce Springsteen

Love poem #1
When I am trying to fall asleep
You are all I think about
Aside from the lights flickering and the washing machine humming
Nothing can take my mind off of thoughts of

Burnt feathers
And curiosity
Always smell of a man who wanted
More.

my mouth and shriek for sustenance I have been in love with food.
And it has always loved me back -
tacos, grilled cheese, steak, sushi, matzo ball soup,

you can wind up and watch. 28.5 million lives
