what i should do
is not hesitate
like in the past
go boldly into
this blue ink
nothing, it is
everything, but
only for me
in this second
i try to tell the truth
and nothing but
what i’ve learned on tv
those sitcoms like
three’s company
and imagine
that all of life could
be the regal beagle
a stage set in
the 80’s, and yet
this goes on, we call
it netflix, my old
nemesis, my old
friend, what i should do
i don’t, the humans
make mistakes
the revolution
will be televised
but there will
never be a
revolution
Happy New Year’s!

End of Ristorante Ideale
Maurizio (married to my cousin Shanna), sold Ideale after 31 years. I have so many memories of the restaurant in North Beach, San Francisco. You can read more here: https://www.sfgate.com/food/article/sf-ideale-restaurant-sold-after-three-decades-19857931.php
The Beauty of Trimmed Baseball Cards
I’m personally a fan of trimmed cards. If the image of the ballplayer is clear, the card still holds value for me!
Budweiser
king of beers, with
horses trotting through snow
men holding cans
red and white
etched on coolers, on
tap handles, pulled by
bartenders, all over this
land, we love to
drink it up, cold
those majestic bubbles
eventually go stale sitting in
plastic red cups, or on
stained shoes, missed drips
unsteady moments, swerving
to get home
no, not royalty
but it can rule us
this little liquid
we love it so
