The City That Never Sleeps
NY City, we have the best hotdogs,
I swear by them its true,
Have you tried an Annie's pretzel?

I am up
with the sun,
an ancient plate
in danger of breaking

The earliest wakers

I Miss a Place That Doesn't Exist

I'd have vivid dreams,
bursts of REM that gave me the illusive bliss
of being wherever
and the closest return
to the mind of a child
