"city lights"

on the curving cupping up and down roads of san francisco
city lights flow past us
in cool electric swirls
we lose ourselves
in a daze
i climb and climb
until i'm so distant from the ground
the stretching blurs of city lights
become lonely sparks in the landscape

[freaking fun night tonight. after the ice-cream-filling theatre rice banquet, luca, jimmy, patrick, andinh, denise, chau and i went on a spontaneous exploration of san francisco. we played hide and seek with the city. and happy 21st phatrick. twinkies and chicken and waffles make good birthday feasts.]

[on another note: i don't want this to end.]
