i had a pleasant surprise
when i opened my front door
and standing there was
my mayor, chris taylor
he was walking around the neighborhoods
talking to people
about the upcoming primary election
we talked for a bit
and i thanked him
for all he’s done
and continues to do
for ann arbor
when he left
and i closed the door
i thought that this is how politicians should be
just walking around talking to people in their neighborhoods.

talking.
when you don’t know what you’re talking about,
it’s hard to know when you’re finished.

la,la,la,la,la……. (not fa, la,la,la).
went to see this movie. waited outside for my friend to arrive.
just then, a loud group of people came out, and one said to the others,
‘i cannot believe that ____________ happened! he ____________! and _______!’
i could not believe they didn’t think about the other people sharing their space, waiting to go in and see the film and wanting all of the roller coaster ups and downs and surprises that came with it. they had revealed the ending of the movie to us. all i wanted was to take back that moment and block my ears and just say, ‘la,la,la,la,la,la,la………..’
