"Not to bring up something upsetting, but when you leave here today, you may go through a period of unemployment. My suggestion is this: Enjoy the unemployment. Have a second cup of coffee. Go to the park. Read Walt Whitman. Walt Whitman loved being unemployed. I don't believe he ever did a day's work in his life. As you may know, he was a poet. If a lot of time goes by and you continue to be unemployed, you may want to consider announcing to all appropriate parties that you have become a poet."

california stars


i'd like to lay my heavy head to rest

on a bed of california stars

they hang ripe like fruit

just waiting for me to pick them

i'm telling you right now

to take them

dive in and swim

don't just wade

or dip your feet

dive in after me

i could be happy

with you, this dream

and a bed of california stars
