another rochester

Another Rochester
astronomers have discovered
another Rochester
signals bouncing off
structures of Montevideo-X
reflecting into deep space
although it's mostly conjecture
researchers posit that
the city-planet hosts
a population of mostly content
middle-class professionals
several decent parks,
a waterfront,
a rehabilitated financial district
and at least one
tolerable band
weather conditions seem favorable
to habitation
for individuals uncomfortable
with the prospect of a completely
tropical existence
prospective colonizers are reminded
that they carry their
discontented DNA
with them regardless of
altered chemical states

Life of the ****

  Life of the ****   I love your body   I made a map that I study   there’s just one thing   that distracts me from loving   ideas haunt me   they take me out for shopping   through imagination   stretching endlessly   tell me what you’re building   behind those eyes   come live with me   in the life of the mind   we go from the streets   to penthouse high   but there’s something   more precious by design   enough parties   enough clothes   can’t spend hours   talking about sports   give me a novel or a film obscure my mind’s got enough   junk to last months
