if you were curious…

about the way

that Los Angeles feels on a smoggy day in August

or

if you ever wanted to know what it’s like

to drive through Long Beach at dusk

then all you need do

is read

Charles Bukowski

we will taste the islands
and the sea

I know that some night
in some bedroom
soon
my fingers will
rift
through
soft clean
hair

songs such as no radio
plays

all sadness, grinning
into flow.

Glamour. Every minute. Every day.
