One of those weeks that end and all you can do is wish yourself better luck Monday. But the rented rooms seem as empty of promise as rinds: post-abundant, a serial view of accumulation and spoilage. A wearied search for excuses in frames the same size as the stained spots: I shouldn�t have tried on an empty tank Tuesday; Wednesday I never refilled.
Enter Friday night, clanking, with eye-strain.

One of those nights when the gypsy fortune tellers are out on the town. If they ever stop talking they die: such at least appears to be a behavioral motivation. You wonder, counting the children in tow, if there�s a gathering of clans going on tonight: an election of regional leaders, or some mandatory winter rite of women�s passage.
Enter middle age, ululating, with bangles on scarred arms.

One of those hours, one of those train rides, where everyone looks like somebody you�ve kissed. Even if you�ve been very selective: lips are lips and varieties of tired eyes no more than five. Reflecting in a window seat upon the ones that hurt the worst: She must have been up half the night masturbating again. For someone she�s never seen, she watches.
Enter daydream, dressed for the evening, with cleats.
