ISLAND CABIN

spider sick update:
i'm having fever sweats but only from my knees to my toes
and only from sunset to sunrise
i can't explain how weird that feels
tall socks make good towels
i was trying to remember the plot of edward scissor hands
i was thinking W should go into acting after the whitehouse
stretching out the emotional landscape on small stages
it's too boring to listen to him as it is, the consequences too dire
this whole spider thing, i'm so excited to feel better than yesterday
i'll probably call you and tell you so
sat in the sun today wrapped up throbbing feet itchy stomach and tired
and blissed out
i don't pretend to know much about judaism but i like the rosh hashanah holiday
i like that the new harvest starts the new year
and the part about looking back critically at the past year, tossing regrets in the river
& a circle of bread and honey
for sweet things to come
