Half-cocked

running down the road in “crocs” — unplanned

Once a Wheatfield boy, always 

***

When you’re drunk

each little moment becomes enough

Like being a child again

But not quite.

***

I like to think of Ryōkan hungover

the poems people never talk about

those that were never published

Cherry blossoms falling on a rotten,

headache day

***

But the lights still speak to me

exactly the same?
