had a great day
forgot my phone at home
and felt a forgotten lightness
the freedom of disconnection
i caught myself reaching for it
the itch of a phantom limb
but quickly got over it
after
work
john
& i
went
to
add-a-ball
like stepping back
in time more ways than one
vintage pinball and video games in the rustic basement of oldtime office building or was it a warehouse once?
anyway it feels like you're in a friend's garage and outside on the astroturf across alley from landmark foundry
new connections were made as strangers introduced themselves by ways of poems they'd written and the
conversations tilted and veered but always stayed cordial. it reminded me of the way this neighborhood
used to be, the easy feeling and camaraderie before Fremont was branded, packaged, & parted out
then i went home and ate peanuts, threw shells on the carpet and refused to look at any screen.
