a sudden thought about
'shillings' and 'halfpences'' on my mind

boxes of lilies and roses

throat parched

a desire to drink and drink...
some man buys me
a hamburger and we speak about music
-
a desire to sleep and sleep ...
smelling vanilla from somewhere pacing back and forth

approaching Summer season ...
waiting for a bus ive asked God why things are boring

old man lustily working pullin' in fish rise and fall of a new incoming storm

-
breathing in silence— the sound in my chest an incoming thunderstorm
