Eremitism

walking through the lobby
of Fountainebleau Miami,
wearing a mask,
and an Outkast shirt,
clutching a SmartWater
and a book of poems.

What a beautiful day—
60º and sunny—
to feel utterly repulsed by existence
like a little Kafka creation. 

The future is the only thing 
forgiving me,
sadly at sea,
having seamless dreams
of a different place.

Next time I am in LA,
I will buy an Eve Babitz book.

I am just a jeans 
and black t-shirt 
(with a Yankees or Magic hat)
type of boy;
I don't belong here. 

I can't wait to never
drink Gatorade again,
and never 
leave Brooklyn.
