Have a ____ Day

Have a nice day. Have a memorable day.
Have (however unlikely) a life-changing day.
Have a day of soaking rain and lightning.
Have a confused day thinking about fate.

Have a day of wholes.
Have a day of poorly marked,
unrecognizable wholes you
cannot fathom.
Have a ferocious day, a bleak
unbearable day. Have a
riotously unproductive day;
a grim jaw-clenched, Clint Eastwood vengeful
law enforcement day.
Have a day of raging, hair-yanking
jealousy and meanness. Have a day
of almost grasping
how whole you are; a finely tuned,
empty day.

Have a nice day of walking and circling;
a day of stalking and hunting,
of planting strange seeds and wandering in the woods.
Have a day of endearing nonsense,
of hopelessly combing your hair,
a day of yielding, of swallowing
hard, breathing more deeply,
a day of fondness for beetles
and macabre spectacles, or irreverence
about anything you want, of just
sitting and wondering.
Have a day of wondering if it's
going to help, or if it just doesn't matter;
a day of dark winds
and torrents flowing through the valley,
of diving into cool water
and gasping for breath,
a day of sudden hunger for communion.

Have a day where the crusts you each
were given are lost and you stumble
with your fellows
searching endlessly together.

ATTENTION BOSTON PEOPLE. I have 6 extra tickets to the SOLD OUT Boston Bacon and Beer Festival this Saturday, April 28, from 2:30 - 5pm. THERE WILL BE ALL THE BACON AND BEER YOU COULD POSSIBLY WANT. Downside: it's $45, because it's at the House of Blues by Fenway, which meant that all ticketing had to go through LiveNation, which meant that they charged a few extra dollars here and there for NO FUCKING REASON WHATSOEVER. Why they can't just include the fees in the original price so we can remain blissfully unaware of being fleeced is COMPLETELY BEYOND ME, especially since it's for a goddamn charity.

Hit me back before I am forced to take this to Craiglist/Reddit/Twitter.

Edit: TICKETS HAVE BEEN SOLD. If you want to get crunk with me at a later date, I will be at the American Craft Beer Fest in June.
