Life's a beach and I love to swim.
Just another beach bum, this town's full of them.
Some folk like to catch fish in the water off the shore,
I've seen some good ones, they catch 5 fish or more!
I don't catch fish, I just steal them on a whim...

First Starlight of Summer
Your whole being is constituted by yearning. You miss the stars but have never seen a fully-realized night sky sparkle to life before your eyes. You write things, funny but short but profound, emulating the archaic cosmos that turns by its own unknowable calculus emulating love in all its celestial glory turning in that same cryptic way, but fully know neither and hardly know both, and it feels disingenuous, so you write about writers. It feels vaguely masturbatory, but it’s funny but short but profound and it impresses the people around you enough, so you run with it forever until you can’t anymore.
