The gaslights on and the bills are due. Leftover rice for dinner again. School in the morning. Dead-end job with too few hours in the evening. Drunk at night. Drunk at night. Awkward encounters with women I  don't know. But good too. Lot's of laughs. Deep wine fueled discussions into the early morning. Music,Music,Music. Fall extravaganza, Jackson Pollack on the mountainsides. Things change. Snow and cold and wind and ice. Hide by my fire. Wait for Spring. Wait for Spring.
