your studies of fringe new york streets...

last night i dreamt that i was you. i was dressed all in black with dark glasses and attitude.
such a pose i could simply not hold through days in a northern town that i had once called a home.
your studies of fringe new york streets... i was reading the pavement in every work you would speak.
to a "brownstone up three flights of stairs" and it's on...
buying drinks for the poets upstate, this southern corruption towed you down the interstate,
and they all said that you were the king of gloomy disruption that surfaced when you would speak.
this town simply cannot compete so i'm packing my bullets and silverstones
and heading east to a "brownstone up three flights of stairs" and it's on...
if i could have had my way this year would bridge '66 again
trust fund hipsters were casing the room chock full of amphetamines.
the overturned kick drum book set the pace with incomparable cool.
and if the tempo was lousy it was lost on all but you...

(death cab)

Hey Cyndi! This has nothing to do with your blog, but do you have any clue how to get in touch with Amy? I have something I'd like to tell her, and I have no clue. Anyway, I hope everything is great for you!
