BECAUSE YOU HAD TO GIVE NAMES TO EVERYTHING YOU FOUND, AND MAKE LOGOS FOR BAD IDEAS, AND CHANGE YOUR CAR EVERY TWO YEARS AND WAKE UP EARLY FOR CONFERENCE CALLS, AND IT TURNED OUT TO BE NO PROGRESS AT ALL / JUST A SHADOW FESTIVAL / BECAUSE OF THAT YOU WILL HAVE TO LEARN TO LOOK AT THE SKY AGAIN, YOU WILL HAVE TO LEARN TO EAT FOOD THAT GROWS WHERE YOU LIVE AGAIN, YOU WILL HAVE TO LEARN TO TOUCH WHAT YOU MAKE

hippies and astronauts



last night I explained to my friend
I did witness the 80s and 90s
wore some of the clothes
watched some of the movies
said some of the words
but for the most part I was outside
on the farm
in the woods
with stringy blonde hair
hand-me-down clothes
bitten nails and grimy shoes
humming songs from the 50s or 60s
and trying to become a fairy
see a unicorn
watch a fern unfurl
but I did witness the 80s and 90s
just instead of a New Kid
I fell in love with a Jedi
