The PhD monster requires the GRE monster. The GRE monster requires reading EVERYTHING. Summer reading: Madness and Civilization. 
Questions: If the DSMV further normalizes the old maladies, what are the new “ship(s) of fools”.
Awesome Quote: “I have not tried to write a history of that language, but rather the archeologist of that silence.”

Commute
brea= tar pit
cienega= swamp
alameda= a street lined with poplars
how she took a the piece of seedcake back from his mouth/with a kiss she passed the key
and red house/ the fox lives in there
drinks from china cups
lightning in the daytime
on La Brea this is where my lover lived, the girl from Orange County
a billboard for The Real L Word/ those girls from that party in Long Beach where no one spoke to us
naked girls in the pool/ and outside some homies asking to be escorted past the ledge/
some guy driving around with his Yes On Prop 8 banner on his truck/ what a douche.
I think of Jaime,
who saw the wolf in me, the sealed windows
and you
flung open like a thanksgiving turkey
and now 6th street: that other girl Irene
small the way I like girls
but young
(when she lazily defended the invasion of Iraq I took her to the aquarium and broke up with her)
And later at some show, ‘Bel and I saw her and looked at each other
and yes, we both had.
The real L word indeed.

Up on forest lawn where they buried Michael Jackson, they are watering the dead. Ana is happy about glockenspiels and a dark chocolate bass. Fall In Love, she insists. I do. Down the 2 fwy from Eagle Rock to Echo Park she keeps the windows open and we fly.
