Lust Bowl
almost any second (almost any second now!)
at this very moment the brass token of my yen edges
all the rest closer in the tumbledown penny arcade

Sometimes they appear; other times you can feel them, for days, weeks, months, like a sliver that you have to trust your body to work to the surface that got jammed in deep.
Or a piece of metal from an old sofa that you don’t want to pay to have picked up so you just bash it with a hammer, and either a bit of the frame or a bit of the hammer breaks off, and you have hot shrapnel in your...

The wonderful Minneapolis band Halloween, Alaska had just played Eau Claire, WI, where I was living. My dear friend Josh Scott and I were rehashing the show, and he said that the singer, James Diers, had mentioned to him that American Music Club were a strong influence on both H.A.’s...
