Poem Number 5036
one quarter
Whistle as I walk
pocket change
all in pesos
i can buy nothing here
north of the border
the sound of david bowie
mocks my every step
for 15 seconds of fame

Good to see you two! I'm back in Utah, just finishing a bachelor's of linguistics. (Which has the cruel effect of making me precisely aware of just what features of Utah English are creeping into my speech despite my really not liking many of them.) Will probably be here another two years for a master's. Haven't really written a lot of poetry lately, but I'm trying to recover that. -e

It's good to see you here and I hope to spend more time as well here at IPP... It's pretty good for the sanity! ~Green
