A sunset south of here

And Brave We'll Be

She started dancing to that fine, fine music
You know her life was saved by rock & roll

-Velvet Underground

Valparaiso

A city of
street art
outdoor elevators
naval ships
romanticized
Pablo Neruda
impossible maps
vegetarian fare
big hills and
most importantly

HAPPY HOUR

Bolivian border

I loathe terrible
bathrooms, fuck it, I'll just go
pee behind that shack.

Oh the Catharsis of Clarity

Call it irony
coincidence
or maybe
perfect timing
but
love don't
seem so good
to me today

Oh, the stories I've got to tell you

A bottle of red, and they're yours...
