lyrics

I spent the night in the Bronx
Staring at the spines of leather bound books.
One was called Infectious Diseases
The other one was the Kama Sutra.

I got up twice in the night
But I could not find The bathroom.
The wood was warm on my bare feet.
And in the morning we were business-like, polite.

I took the train from the tip of the island,
way back home. There were women hoisting
Glorious shopping bags full of gifts.

When we got stuck underground,
the conductor read to us from Rumi,
and also other poems
He had fashioned for himself.

When I got home I took off all my clothes
and tried to cry in front of the mirror.
But nothing came.
So I stepped into the shower
And let the water beat down the drain.
