Things to Do at Night When No One Is Watching

Steal a STOP sign
Smoke weed in the back alley behind the Blue Bird
Piss in that same back alley
Pick the tullips
  in front of the Sample Gates
Deface a tombstone
Masturbate
Chase rabbits
Talk to rabbits
Talk to yourself
Call your ex-boyfriend
Call your grandmother
Call the cops
Watch college kids get drunk
Watch them watch you get drunk
Do pushups
Do your taxes
Do your hair
STOP.

"I remember..." lists

I remember last night--the dilapidated
porch and the rain and the roll
of the empty beer bottle down

the stairs

I remember camping with James &
Mikey the weekend before the last
IUWC--stars spinning in the inebriated
sky, wondering where the day
went.
