blake berglund and i
left regina for the farm
the next morning, i learned -
on our cross country trip, from south eastern SK
to the great metropolitan cities -
we would be cutting through the states
the 6 joints i brought for the trip
were smoked in the two hours
before we hit the border
the drive was uneventful -
i drove, while blake pretended to sleep
on a cot in the back.
long into the night - coast to coast am in too-fast construction zones
another solemn promise to never again visit cracker barrel
i bought 3 books in montreal
i woke up in toronto
to a parking ticket on the dash
on a cot in the back.
i flew back that afternoon
blake went to texas.
