He asked me,
Have you ever wanted to say,
“Fuck it all”
Run away to the wildness of Vermont?
I’ve had those moments.
Except,
New York has always been the place I wanted to run to.
I’ve been daydreaming relentlessly.
Mentally, I’ve been standing
On the rocks at Halibut Point
Since four in the morning.
All day I could taste the salt.
