i may have shared this before, but either way it’s from 2016.

when bar writing i often engage in what i call ‘machine-gun fire,’ meaning i write snippets of thoughts one after the other without pause. the irony is even though they’re thoughts they really aren’t in that i never really gave them thought in the first sense. i know, i know, i’m a complicated man…

‘puppy dog’

you leave;

i linger.
