ISLAND CABIN

ASH WEDNESDAY COINCIDENCE Wednesday morning I sat in on figure drawing class. My hands were covered in charcoaI, I had to move my hair away from my eyes. So I accidentally performed the ashes and simultaneously looked over at a student who had been to morning mass and then remembered it was ash wednesday unto dust she shall return, being marked all day.
Later Ursen asked me how many more birthdays do I have,
and then what happens? and then who will take care of me? and that, and that,
and The Deer Hunter came in the mail, one of the classics I have avoided.
Best thing I can think of in terms of acting, story, timing,
hard to shake off movie
three streams confluence.
there was once a boyfriend who drove a red bug,
walking around the Embarcadero I thought i saw him in his car and ran up to say hi
but it wasn't him, he had already gone back to LA and I was walking around wondering if he
had stopped hating hollywood and if he still loved the movies
when he pulled up his red bug and said hello.
